Where the sources disagree
- Welcome, renewal and milestone benefits: The product page still lists the complimentary ticket voucher, milestone vouchers and Maharaja Club membership as current features; the post-merger revision says they are discontinued from each card's next renewal cycle and that the annual fee is waived at renewal. The revision is used, so the benefits are entered as ended.
Terms the calculator does not value
- The card is discontinued for spends after 2026-10-31; the calculator values it as a live card. Welcome and milestone ticket vouchers are entered as ended on 2025-04-17 (each holder lost them at the next renewal cycle after that).
- Maharaja Points are valued at the platform's air-india-maharaja estimate. Air India sets validity and redemption, and the Axis documents give neither a rupee value nor an expiry.
