I think this card is in direct competition to HDFC Regalia & Yes Bank Preferred. However SBI card is superior to many other cards. It got everything from good reward points to milestone benefits to lounge access to airline & hotel privileges.
- This Card gives Cashback in terms of reward point in excess of 2.5 to 6.4% .
- Best for people who spend 3lac to 5lac per annum.
- Verdict : Get it only if you spend 3lac+ in a year
