Check your eligibility For This Card
The Indian Oil HDFC Bank Credit Card is a co-branded fuel card, ideal for people who spend a lot on fuel every month. It offers accelerated rewards on Indian Oil fuel purchases, allowing cardholders to earn up to 50 liters of free fuel annually through fuel points. The card comes with a monthly reward cap: for the first six months, you can earn up to 250 fuel points per month (value up to Rs. 240), and after six months, the value back is Rs. 144 per month (capped at 150 points).
The value of points is lower when redeemed for other categories like product catalogs or cashback. So, to get the maximum benefit, it is best to redeem points against fuel. While the fuel savings are good, they are slightly lower than other Indian Oil card variants such as Axis Bank (Rs. 250 per month), Kotak Mahindra Bank (Rs. 300 per month), and RBL Bank (Rs. 500 per month).
Apart from fuel, the HDFC card also gives accelerated rewards on groceries and bill payments, with up to 100 fuel points per month per category, offering a total value of Rs. 192 (Rs. 96 per category). Other Indian Oil cards also offer rewards on non-fuel spends, for example: Axis gives 1% value-back on online shopping (up to Rs. 50 per month), and Kotak gives 2% back on grocery and dining (monthly savings up to Rs. 200).
Additionally, here is the base reward rate on non-accelerated categories on the Indian Oil cards:
Indian Oil HDFC: 1 fuel point for every Rs. 150, reward rate of 0.64%
Indian Oil Kotak: 3 reward points on every Rs. 150, reward rate of 0.5%
Indian Oil Axis: 1 reward point on every Rs. 100, reward rate of 0.2%
Indian Oil RBL: 1 fuel point on every Rs. 100, reward rate of 0.5%
