Where the sources disagree
- joining fee: The rewards T&C lists a joining fee of ₹3,499 (waived for Solitaire Program customers); the commercial MITC and the page say joining nil. We use the MITC and page.
- reward point multiple: The page calls the Unbox rate "7X"; the T&C gives 14 points per ₹150, which is 7 times the base 2. We enter 14 per ₹150.
- share of the cart payable in points: The page says up to 100% of the cart can be redeemed with reward points on Unbox; the T&C says only 90%, the other 10% by card. We use the T&C.
- international bookings: The page's value chart shows 15% value on international hotels and flights, while the T&C and the page's text say no reward points are earned on international transactions. We follow the T&C.
Terms the calculator does not value
- The commercial MITC states no dynamic currency conversion fee for this card, so the issuer's 3.5% default shows on the card page; only the 1.99% forex markup is stated.
- The commercial MITC (5.6) lists transaction fees of 1.1% on utility and insurance payments and 0.7% on education and post office payments for corporate cards; its Solitaire Business table (5.7) does not repeat them, so they are not entered.
- Passenger railways (MCC 4112) earn 1 point per ₹150 under the T&C's low-earning list; they share a category with cabs and travel agents, so they earn the base rate here.
- Reward points spent on vouchers, merchandise and partner miles are "live soon" and have no published value, so only Unbox travel is valued.
