Where the sources disagree
- international lounge visits: The MITC linked from IOB's credit card page (modified 20 Aug 2026) gives the Platinum variant "1 per year" at international terminals (4 visits a year in all), as does novio's page; an earlier copy (17 Aug 2026) shows none ("-") with the same total of 4. The linked copy is used. Its "Total Lounge Visits per Year" column (4 for Platinum, 8 for Select) equals the domestic visits alone, so it does not add up with the international visit; the per-terminal columns are used.
Terms the calculator does not value
- Rewards are run by novio, not stated in the bank's MITC: novio's page advertises "novio coins" (5% on UPI and store spends, 10% on fuel, up to 10% on novio UPI) redeemable for discounted brand vouchers, with no rupee value per coin. Not entered, so the card is listed, not valued.
- The fixed deposit earns interest (novio says up to 7%) and stays under lien while the card is open; the calculator counts neither the interest nor the cost of locking the money.
