The CRED IndusInd Bank RuPay Credit Card is a lifetime free card, so there is no joining fee and no renewal fee to recover. Everything you earn on it is net gain, which also means the only thing worth watching is the reward caps and the excluded categories. Check that the card still has no fee on your welcome letter, because IndusInd Bank prices some variants differently.
Reward earn rates marked with *T & C apply on the issuer page.
Detailed fuel surcharge waiver terms are not visible in captured text.
