TF Premier
VIP Lounge
My monthly CC spend is around 3 to 4 Lacs. Need suggestion on how and where should I allocate my CC spend across following cards

Axis Magnus (this is no brainer. 1 lac per month)
Axis Vistara Infinite
HdFC Infinia
AMEX Platinum Travel

Major spend is across Hotels, Online Shopping etc.

Other cards that I have are Yes First Exlusive and SBI simplyclick.

Any card that I should retire from above and or add any other card to portfolio?

TIA
 
I hold all 4. For me, its mostly Magnus until 1L; little planning there as well.
Post that, Vistara Infinite for all 1X spends
Infinia for travel / vouchers - the new Accor reward rate is very nice, and per my calculations, the 5X works out very close to Magnus considering redemption fees and all (for Vistara anyway)
 
For online spends (post 1L + can't covered by vouchers), SBI cashback would give max benefit (5% straight cashback till 2L spend)
If you can split the payments, MRCC would also provide better return for 20k spend (1000+1000+other points every month)
 
also to check if some of the hotels/flights are non INR expense, some cards like axis reserve have double bonus for foreign spending. but compare against travel edge 5x too..
