Key Takeaways

Verified card-level notes, best use-cases, and watchouts.

Pros & Insights

  • Current value proposition remains travel-led, but legacy Vistara-era benefits are in transition under merger updates.
  • The card remains meaningful for users who can consistently use Maharaja Points and milestone ticket journeys.
  • Lounge utility is spend-gated and should be modeled as conditional, not guaranteed.

Best Utilization

  • Use as a focused domestic travel card where annual fees are justified by ticket-voucher usage and point redemption.
  • Track quarterly spend against lounge gating thresholds to avoid overestimating effective benefits.
  • Re-validate card economics at every renewal because merger-driven policy changes are still ongoing.

Watchouts

  • Interim policy circulars can change eligibility and voucher outcomes with short notice.
  • Rent, fuel, wallet, and selected MCC categories can dilute practical points yield.
  • If yearly travel redemption is low, fee-adjusted value can underperform simpler cashback products.
