Earns nothing on

  • No reward points

Where the sources disagree

  • annual fee: The card portal's fee page for PM SVANidhi lists a ₹350 annual fee waived on ₹30,000 of spend; the bank's product page ("lifetime free") and the MITC (nil) say there is no fee. The page and MITC are used; the portal text matches another card's page.

Terms the calculator does not value

  • The MITC's interest table names only the Micro Enterprise card (1.5% a month) and gives no rate for PM SVANidhi, which it groups with that card for fees; the bank's 3% a month is used and may be lower in practice. The MITC also says annual fees of up to 1% of the limit (at most ₹1,000) may be charged from the second year on micro enterprise cards.
  • Merchant category restrictions (liquor, gambling, foreign airlines, car rental, international hotel chains and some direct marketing) apply to the card.
