CardIQ verdict
It deserves a place on the shortlist when your normal spending makes 4 points per ₹150 on eligible regular purchases; up to 8 under the special-category and annual-spend programme valuable enough to clear the fee. Factor in this condition: 1 point = ₹0.07 cash redemption or ₹0.10 for eligible non-cash rewards.
