Axis Airtel Cashback issue

[raghumahajan]

I was checking and calculating cashback per transaction on Airtel Axis Cashback.
few differences I found out:

1. Airtel Recharge market as "Utilities" and given 10% cashback sometimes
2. Zomato merchant (2 - different transactions), one is marked "Food Products" and the other "Restaurants", the second one is given 1% cashback.

What should be the solution to this?

I have multiple utility bills to pay which exceed Rs 2500 most months. With a utility capping of 250 per statement, is applying another card for my spouse considering fees beneficial? Or suggest any other cards.
Note - I have Tata Neu too.

You can get ₹100 off on paying utility payment of ₹500 or above using Rupay platinum debit card in Amazon Pay. Hence for some of the bills you can use this method. This offer is there till March 2025 for now.

Can someone guide?
Cashback is calculated as per billing cycle or calendar month?

Billing cycle.
Case-1
Like if you have done a transaction before the bill generation date say 12th Jan . Then your cashback earned in Jan month will be credited to the 3 days prior to the bill generation date in Feb . Ie: 8 or 9th feb
Case-2
If you made a transaction after billing cycle (say 13th Jan). Then your bill will be generated on next month 12th feb . Then your cashback will be credited to 8th or 9th March

If you have more airtel recharges, then you can consider applying another airtel card for your spouse as 25% is only for Airtel Recharges. What I am doing is, I've adjusted my airtel numbers recharges like this that every month only 2 numbers need to recharge with 84 days validity, So I can manage 5-6 numbers this way with only one card. For Gas & small utility bills, you can get Free Rupay platinum DC of different banks which gives 20% upto 100 on Amazon. Though its upto 31st march but hopefully they will extend it.

Bhai konse banks rupay premium debit card free dete hain ? My parents have this debit card but they are charged Rs 300 + GST annually in central bank india. They have salary account in this bank.

Jio payments bank gives free virtual dc with zero balance acc. Bob gives with 3000 balance. IDFC bank gives sticker dc with one time fee of 100+gst. AU bank gives with 200+gst annual fee with zero bal acc. All works for the rupay offer. @Hemang

It happens mostly in every other statement. You have to raise the issue on twitter with Axis bank support. they will ask you to send transaction details and then in next month's statement they credit the difference of cashback.
