Where the sources disagree
- foreign currency markup: The product page says "just 3%". The MITC v4.15 fee table gives 3.5% for the row that holds Diners Club Rewardz. The MITC is used.
- interest rate: The fees page says 3.6% a month. MITC v4.15 gives 3.75% for all variants other than the 1.99% cards. The MITC is used.
Terms the calculator does not value
- SmartBuy cashback applies only to purchases made through the SmartBuy portal. This card is not named in the SmartBuy table, so it is placed in the "Other credit card (CashBack)" column (5% or 10% on listed categories and merchants, ₹1,000 a month), as for HDFC's other unnamed cards. The table is valid till 31 March 2027.
