Strictly speaking, yes. You can have a US Passport card only if you are a US citizen. Since India does not recognize dual citizenship, your child is no longer Indian (unless you somehow hide the US citizenship from the Indian authorities).

Does your baby have an Indian passport for herself? Or is she included in the mother's passport? If neither of these are true, then your child is not recognized as an Indian citizen. In fact, I bet you will run into issues if you try to apply for an Indian passport for your child. If you do so, I bet the Indian consulate will ask for some kind of proof of renunciation of US citizenship.

Does US passport card come into this category?
If I'm not mistaken, anyone born in the US is a US citizen unless they specifically renounce US citizenship. So a child born to Indian parents in the US is only a US citizen by default.

If I may, why do you strive so hard to retain Indian citizenship for your child? I would assume that US citizenship + OCI card is far superior to Indian citizenship.
