Infinia Infinia + Tanishq Redemption

Good observation, this only proves that air tickets is the best use of HDFC points to derive the maximum value of 85.71 paisa, after considering only 70% points utilisation.

This value is derived by a complex formula well known to HDFC investment bankers
You derive 100% value from points. Each point is worth ₹1.
 
I made a transaction today, and based on my calculations, 1 RP is equivalent to 0.8 for Tanishq (assuming an immediate conversion to cash, which may be offset by gold appreciation in case of selling after extended period).

I brought in 1.29 L jewellery with ~9.5% making chargers (90k RP + 39k cash). The Tanishq representative informed me that selling it for cash today would yield 1.11 L. This means I lost 18k in the 90k points, resulting in a realization of only 0.8 (of course, GST, and the charges incurred would have been unavoidable if I had purchased the jewellery to keep my wife happy, so I can’t really complain)!

1.2L Voucher purchased across two quarters?

As there's redemption limit of 50k/quarter?
 
Ya, the limit is 50k rewards redemption every quarter..so, I did 90k redemption in Dec and Jan
So used a total of 13 Vouchers?



I'm planning to club 3 quarters. That makes it 24 Vouchers. There's no mention of the maximum number of Vouchers that can be used against a single bill in the T&C, so I'm looking for some reassurance. Emailed tanishq support, they said it's based on the T&Cs of the voucher-seller. HDFC & smartbuy are saying it's determined by Tanishq.

that's not the right comparison to get 80% value. Its influenced by making charges which you will have to pay. You can't reduce the making charges.
Is like comparing the ffp miles with only base fare to calculate returns, you have to pay airport development charge as well, so that should be included in calculation.
