No, you can't. A specific code that came along with card, have to enter before activation of cc

I think you need a PIN to start using your card - virtual or physical and for generating the PIN you need the physical card with you as the pin generation process asks you to enter some numbers corresponding to some random grid that is present in the back of your card and you cannot see the back of your virtual card so you will need access to your physical card.

Grid number are only there in case of ICICI debit, Axis don't have grid numbers. But they do send a unique number in the printed courier along with card  that needs to be entered in their IVR/ App to activate card. 

However, @tappukepapa method's might work.

Trick to activate Axis credit card without activation code for existing customers.

You need to have the last 4 digits of the card which appear in your axis app

Go to WhatsApp banking

Manage card limit > Domestic usage > Online > Enable max limit > enter OTP

Done!

Ps: Not tested personally.

No way.  You need activation code that comes along with the delivery of the card.

I have never used the activation code that comes with the card.

You can set the card pin via OTP as well.

Check online how to set/reset card pin online.

Now you cannot do anything until you enter the activation code and 'unbox' the card.

You will receive an activation code with the physical credit card. Without it, you cannot enable the transactions on your card even when the details are visible in the mobile banking app, no matter what.

I've applied for two different Axis credit cards in the last 6 months and that's how they function now. You will have to wait till the delivery of the physical card.

Just pay rupees 10 from cred to your card. It will be magically activated for online transactions. 🔥

I have tried for Flipkart axis cc and it was activated the same day using this trick.
