General product research only. Recheck the listed first-party sources before acting because product terms can change after the recorded review dates.

Decision checkpoints

Answer the questions that can actually change the choice.

Each checkpoint reproduces the recorded product fields instead of assigning a winner. Read the condition, scope and missing-data state before treating a difference as useful to you.

01Would the card still fit if you miss its fee waiver?Read the recurring fee and qualifying-spend rule together before counting rewards as value.

RBL Bank Platinum TravelEasy Credit Card

Annual fee
₹999 + GST from the current RBL product/MITC structure
Fee waiver
Second-year annual fee reversed on eligible annual spends of ₹1,00,000 or more.

IndianOil Axis Bank Credit Card

Annual fee
1st year Nil; ₹500 from the 2nd year on the current Axis Bank product page
Fee waiver
Annual fee waived when card-anniversary-year spend exceeds ₹3,50,000 under the current terms; specified categories including rent/wallet and other excluded transactions do not count.
02Do your actual purchases qualify for the rewards?Check the reward structure and the recorded cautions; a headline earning rate is not the return on every purchase.
