Best cards for government transactions

[tsj49]

Hello,
Just want to know best cards to use for government transactions.
I am assuming income tax payments, stamp duty, registration, property tax payment etc. in government transactions.
I have DCB, Magnus, MRCC, ICICI Amazon, IDFC wealth card. If there's no good option from these cards, I would go for other if they give good rewards.

Banks have a good opportunity to release niche cards for government transactions.

Banks have a good opportunity to release niche cards for government transactions.

But why will they? It is a compulsory spend for people and the MDR is quite low?

Apart from Magnus, what other cards we can use for best milestone rewards?
I tried paying tax through Amex but they don't accept.

I have income tax and property registration charges coming up and I see that Amex and Diners are not accepted in income tax payment gateways.
Also, most cards don't provide any points on these payments but they consider this on milestone benefits.
Basically the question boils down to "Best cards for milestone benefits". I see Magnus is best till 1L but apart from that, I see Axis Vistara cards which will give free tickets. Any other good cards in this aspect?

After the recent Axis terms and conditions which is coming into effect on 5th March , 2023 , will Income tax payment fetch reward points and will it be considered for Monthly Milestone benefit or Annual Fee waiver ?

Thanks for confirming that Milestone and reward points wont have impact for Income tax payment.

But paying NPS with Magnus wont fetch Reward points and wont be eligible for milestone right ?

If you use Magnus for NPS it will get and will continue to get (after March 5th) regular RP. Also it will be included in the monthly and annual milstone calculations

For stamp duty, will DCB receive any points?
