Pros & cons

What's good

  • Complimentary airport lounge access (12 visits a year).
  • No fee to add an additional cardholder.

Worth noting

  • Annual fee Rs. 2,999 + taxes in year 1; renewal fee Rs. 2,999 + taxes from year 2 onwards. Taxes not included in stated fee. Renewal fee waived on annual spends of Rs. 3 lakhs or more in the preceding year. The ₹2,999 annual fee is still high for a Platinum card, where the typical fee is about ₹1,250.
  • The 20-point rate on utility bill payment via standing instructions (up to 3,000 points) applies only to the first ₹3,000 spent each statement period, then drops to a lower rate.
  • No balance transfer or introductory purchase offer.
  • Up to 50 interest-free days on purchases (below the 50-day median).
