Sorry, it says that for payment in local currency:
"Which payment methods are supported?
We currently offer Amazon Currency Converter when you use either Visa or MasterCard.
Payment can include promotional offers or discounts, but cannot include Gift Cards."

But seems that an Amazon.com gift card might work, but I have no idea about obtaining such a gift card.

There seemed to be nowhere mentioned on Amazon India or the Kindle Amazon.com webstore that a Indian Mastercard credit card, such as I have, will not be accepted. So I wonder what the problem is? If it was indeed because of the CVV and password, like people complained about on their Help forum, then one would think they'd have mentioned it on their offical pages. I will contact Amazon's customer care once more as to why my card is being rejected.
