Benefits
– 2% on all purchases makes it a great credit card for those who are looking for simplicity of benefit structure, and want a great all round credit card (instead of managing multiple cards to maximize benefits on various purchase categories)
– 5% cashback rate on a variety of bill payments through Google Pay App. (electricity, water, gas, LPG, broadband, DTH and mobile recharges)
– 4% cashback rate on specific food delivery & ridesharing purchases (Swiggy, Zomato and Ola).
– Complimentary lounge access at domestic airports – 4 per year. This is not very common on cards with similar low annual fee cards.
– Attractive dining program in partnership with EazyDiner – 15% discount on dining purchases between ₹1500 and ₹3,333 each month. Once per month.

Drawbacks
– While 2% is a good cashback rate on all purchases, one can earn higher reward rates by getting multiple cards which give higher reward rate on popular purchase categories like online purchases, travel, fuel etc.
– The annual credit card spend target (₹2,00,000)  to get waiver of renewal fees is high. However the good all round cashback rate of 2% makes up if you do not want the complexity of multiple specialist cards, since you can then use this credit card for most of your monthly spends
