      Hi Gaurav,
      Please update what happened finally. Could you get the clear reason from ICICI bank?

      And @Ashal:
      As far as I know it is mandatory for the banks to inform the customer of the specific reason for rejection for application for credit(loans/credit card).
      Please refer to RBI Guidelines on Fair Practices Code for Lenders:

   Offcourse I have checked my CIBIL Score.
   My CIBIL Score at prsent is 807 out of 900 which is considered to be near excellent
   Not only that my Equifax score is also 924 out of 999
   Being a doctor by profession,with a salary of Rs 45000 per month and not holding any other Loan,besides a Credit Card of HDFC Bank without a single despute with DPDS in my CIR showing 000 since I took card,I could find no reason for my Card Denial by ICICI Bank.
   They dont give any clear reason for card reason.This is 2 nd time in last 9 months that they have declined my application withoout giving any EXACT reason.
   Kindly tell me what action I can take.I do accept its their right to issue Credit Card.But I feel it my right as well to know exact reason for my card denial!!!

      Dear Gaurav, in case you are interested to go with an ICICI credit card due to any personal reason, you may opt for instant credit card issued against a FD with ICICI bank.

      One possible reason of card application denial – may be your residential area is falling in no service or negative zone as per bank’s policy.

      Thanks

   Dear Gaurav, instead of focusing on denial & reason behind it. please check your CIBIL score first. This may be a possible reason. Banks are not forced by RBI to reveal the exact reason of denial.

   thanks

   Ashal
