Earns nothing on

  • No points on fuel
  • No points on cash advances

Where the sources disagree

  • Fuel surcharge waiver: The page says "1% Fuel Surcharge waiver on all fuel spends"; the product T&C 16 limits it to transactions of ₹400 to ₹2,000 and ₹400 a statement cycle. We use the T&C.
  • Annual fee reversal threshold: The page says the renewal fee is reversed on spends of "INR 1,50,000 or higher" in the previous year; the MITC says "greater than INR 1,50,000". We enter ₹1,50,000 (the difference is one rupee).

Terms the calculator does not value

  • Reward points earned by supplementary cardholders are capped individually; the redemption fee of ₹99 is not deducted from the point values.
