Best card for ITR payment

[diptarkaroy]

As I calculated, I have to pay just over 1L as ITR tax due within the end of next month.

I have the below cards (not mentioning all the cards):
Yes marquee
SBI cashback
Icici sapphiro and APAY
IDFC wealth
AU Zenith
HDFC neu infinity
Bob premier
Kotak Myntra
Federal Imperio
Axis Airtel

Please suggest me which one would be the most rewarding!!!

HDFC BizBlack for all types of tax payments.

Ah! won't make sense for me then. I mostly have salary income only.

Unless you have the consultant option....

But then your company has to agree. Also, I don't think EPF would apply to you (I consider EPF deductions a good thing)

Everyone is suggesting about HDFC bizblack only
But I don’t think salaried people can get this card
Is there any other alternative?

I’ve found Kotak Myntra will give 1.25% cb on government payment as mcc 9311 is not in there exclusion list



Also yes marquee will give 1.25% rewards back (10 points on 200 rupees txn)

Am I missing something?

The tax portals take around 1% transaction fees. Hence these cards which give rewards of close to 1% really don't give much value.

Yeah… the only thing I’m looking for is to offset that transaction fees at least
I didn’t expect it to be 1L… so planning to pay by card for the time being 😂

If there is a real cashback offset of transaction fees along with free credit period of average 30 days, go for it..

HDFC BizBlack for all types of tax payments.

Do you personally use this card? ( without having business )

I believe scapia still gives 2% value back in the form of points for govt transactions

Don't!!!
Government spends are not included in 10x
