Best card for Petrol spends?

Sobirvs

TF Premier
I drive a SUV and last month I spent 30k on petrol itself with no benefits. I currently use Onecard for petrol expense because they refund any surge charge (regardless petrol pump)

Please suggest petrol credit card, here are my requirements :

* Shouldn't work only at specific Pumps like HP, BP etc, hopefully should work anywhere as who has the time to find preferred pumps.
* Should give benefit, currently I get almost zero benefits.
* I usually fill up full tank. It costs almost 4500 rupees. So if possible card shouldn't have this thing of "spend 1000 on petrol or 2000", it should be regardless.
 
12 mileage in hilly area? No way.

and from delhi to srinagar - 820kms and back to delhi, same. Now moving in jammu to spend time, + going to pahalgam, gulmarg, sonmarg, zero point, and there was one more place i forgot the name. Easily this should be close to 3000 km's.
So this trip will be done by you every month?
If YES then just take 3 cards from 3 petroleum companies, it's simple

If NO then just take 3 cards from 3 petroleum companies, it's simple.

I also have 2 cars and a bike in my family and overall petrol expenses come to near 12-15k per month.
I fill from Indian Oil and Jio pumps. In many threads I have seen that for fuel cards, there are frequent problems of points not being credited correctly, we need to run behind customer care for getting points. Then, redemption is also not very easy. not very difficult though.

What I recently have been doing - Use Tata Neu Rupay card and pay via UPI scan. So far in the last 1 year, there has not been any surcharge for UPI scans on fuel stations. If I fill for 100, then I am charged 1000 in the bill. No surcharge and no waiver.

Another thing is I make sure to get them add points by giving my mobile number - both at Indian Oil and Jio pumps.
These points get added to the IOCL wallet or Jio Happy points and we can redeem it at any point in future once we have significant points.

Initially it was hassle during early days, not anymore. Just swipe on IOCL POS machines and enjoy 7.5% RPs upto ₹1k per month.
 
Which card is this?
For IOCL - RBL
1000082063.webp

For BPCL - SBI
1000082064.webp

Bonus: Both cards available on Rupay platform as well.
 
Why not use Park+ vouchers! there are issues of acceptance, but with SBI cashback card, one can easily save 7%
 
someone needs to make a huge thread about this, otherwise we RBL card holders of IOCL are just wasting our time.u

u can check the park+ app, buy fuel vouchers using SBI cashback card and use it at IOCL bunks.
Problem is the usage part, most bunks would turn u down, so u need to find the bunk that would accept it happily (rare)
I stay at Sarjapur road in Blr, and at times it is tough to redeem them!
If anyone stays in the vicinity do share the bunk they visit to redeem these?

so just to find a bunk that accepts this, we keep moving frm bunk to bunk and waste 10% of our petrol anyways no?
