Which card to use for Advance Tax Payment

[newIntern]

Ok, so you got cashback as part of some promo offer (because IDFC provides reward points). I thought you received 2.5% worth of reward points where IDFC Select provides only 0.5% worth of reward points. One time benefit for you, and it may not work next time. Is my understanding correct?

not sure, I am not aware if they were running any promotion at that time. in app it says Dormancy cashback, I dont know what that is.

and I just saw the rewards points section so reward points are 404 and yes that is equal to 101rs or 0.5% of 20k


but now I want to know what is this Dormancy cashback?

Do you use that card regularly, because sometime if we rarely use our cards, bank give cashback offers, so that you starr using their cards. May be that time similar offer was running

For me, we need to pay around 50-70k advance tax (exact amount yet to be calculated). Between me and my wife, we have the following cards:
HDFC Infinia (Plastic)
DCB (Plastic)
Axis Olympus
Amex Plat Travel
Yes Reserv

Any thoughts? Also do tax payments count towards Milestone for Amex Plat Travel?
