Is it possible to use any Rupay Credit Card, even if it does not have any lounge access offers from the bank?
 
Is this Access Policy on top of the lounge accesses offered by the banks?

Or will this replace the bank's offering with their offering?

So, for example, my Tata Neu HDFC Infinity card offers 2 card access per quarter(with no spend required).

Can I still access them at RuPay lounge with 0 spends?

Those are provided by HDFC and should work as is.


Similar to, HDFC Tneu cards don't provide select benefits.
Afaik HDFC Tneu cards benefits are managed by HDFC and not Rupay.


This offer might be applicable to most govt bank cards.

What does this mean?
Tata Nue infinity has 2 access/quarter without any spend criteria. Lets say if I had spend 60K inr in the previous quarter, does this offer override or accumulate ? i.e., 4 access/quarter 4+2 access /quarter?
