Earns nothing on

  • No points on fuel
  • No points on ATM and cash transactions

Where the sources disagree

  • Forex markup: T&C section 6 names the "Beyond Credit Card" in its 2% forex text (a slip); the page, the MITC fee note and the fee table's footnote give 2% for the Ultimate card. We use 2%.

Terms the calculator does not value

  • The 5% duty-free cashback (at most ₹1,000 a statement) is not entered as an earn rule because the spend model has no duty-free category (MCC 5309).
  • The golf programme has no stated number of rounds on the page.
