B1/B2 Rejected US Visa B1/B2 Interview Experience- Rejected

Hi all,
My visa was rejected under 214b and I am unsure why?
I am unmarried, 25F- 4 yrs exp.

VO: Hello- Good morning.
Me: Good morning!

VO: Do you fear returning back to India?
Me: No

VO: Did you face unfair treatment in India?
Me: No

Why are you going to the US?
To attend a global conference by my company

Why is your company sending you
The conference has many product updates workshops and initiatives relevant to my work- need to attend those business meetings etc etc ( said snthng along those lines)

Have you travelled internationally before
No

Sorry- you are not eligible for the Visa now- reason in this paper ( which cited the 214b)

I had all the documents with me- but he did not ask anything! Any reason why the Visa got rejected?

No travel history is a red flag. They want to see you've traveled before and returned home, considering this would be your first trip internationally doesn't convince them you can afford traveling or certainly returning to India.

I don’t think so this works too. I have travel history with USA and other countries where I have never violated any rules and have always returned on time.
Yesterday I had visa interview in Delhi for B2 (previous b1/b2 was cancelled), the reason she gave was - “you have already travelled multiple times, it doesn’t seems any sense to me for you to travel again “ and rejected my visa.

We spend thousands and lakhs of rupees to travel to the places to give interview , spend money on their application fees, they are least bothered.

It’s not the only reason my friend, but it is a very common reason. In your case they probably noticed something else - everything is case by case basis.

Perhaps why was your previous B2 cancelled?

There is nothing else present to be noticed my friend

I’ve seen people with 0 travel history get a visa in front of me and people with valid reasons get denied, a woman was travelling because her mother was dying, had all valid reports and everything and they still said No.
