HDFC Diners Club Black (Metal Edition) card art

HDFC Diners Club Black (Metal Edition)

A metal Diners Club card matching Infinia-level lounge and golf perks at a slightly lower fee, but the Diners Club network has narrower merchant acceptance in India than Visa/Mastercard — note HDFC was not accepting fresh Diners Club Black (non-metal) applications as of this review, with the metal edition as the current live product.
