Yes.. cancelled... Not sure @ the Star Gold status. Hopefully it will continue to Mar 26. I m fine even if they cancel the same. Don't want to pay 11.8K for a card that I don't use .. so basically paying for only the status.. Atlas gives more benefit with half the price..

I have 3 Axis cards.. Magnus (not Burgundy).. Atlas and Vistara Infinite.. As Star Gold has now been confirmed till March 2026, I decided to close Vistara Infinite card, as it makes little sense to pay 12K for Biz class tkt. For buying tickets, Atlas and Magnus gives much better value then...
