I have never owned a credit card before. Salary is ₹60,000/month. Which is the safest entry-level credit card to start building my CIBIL score?

I closed my HDFC card last year. The process took exactly 7 days. They sent a confirmation email and a closure letter by speed post. Tip: pay off the full outstanding and request closure only AFTER the payment reflects. Calling repeatedly with a zero balance is the fastest path.
