I don't think CCs are accepted for income tax payment

They are. Some even pay cashback or milestone benifits. There are 7 payment gateways available.

you can. I did pay my difference amount for FY23-24 via HDFC CC.
SC Ultimate will give you 3RP for 150rs on government payments. With 1RP = 1rs its return is 2% - Payment Gateway charges

Sbi vistara no longer give points for govt payment. Not sure about milestone

I don't have any super premium card so simply paid with ICICI Amazon Pay using Kotak PG.

Does Kotak gateway not charge a fee for tax payment using Kotak credit cards? I just made a advance tax payment using Kotak 811 card and got no additional charges levied. Was short of it's annual milestone reward and got that completed with this payment for no charge.

Isn't that a waste ? It will give 1% cashback and gateway charges will be 0.98%+ GST, which is more than cashback recieved

No. Gateway charges 0.8% + 18% GST = 0.944%

Probably no charges for debit card. For CC 0.8% + GST

 

[cardoptimizer]

No. Gateway charges 0.8% + 18% GST = 0.944%

Its pretty much useless - 0.056% net. There are much better cards than this.

No point if I don't have it - right?

Still what's the point ? It's almost same as cashback and there's no milestone benifit afaik. Is there something I'm missing here ?

One month extra credit. Yes, But not much for folks who have enough in bank account all time.
