Excellent milestone value: Spending ₹2.5 Lakhs in a year unlocks both an annual fee waiver of ₹1,500 and 10,000 bonus EDGE Reward points worth ₹2,000.
Strong welcome bonus: Provides 12,500 EDGE REWARD points, valued at ₹2,000, which more than offsets the ₹1,500 joining fee.

Cons
Poor for international use: The card carries a high forex markup fee of 3.50% with no special benefits for international transactions.
Reward redemption fee: A fee of ₹99 plus GST is charged for each redemption from the EDGE Rewards catalogue, which devalues the points earned.
