Close: SBI Octane
Switch: Bob Premier (1180) to Bob Snapdeal (300)

Snapdeal card will give you 2.5% online (since Cashback rejected, you can use till then), only cards better than this are those 3.33% cards. Note: This is not for Snapdeal website, although you can use it as a bonus.

Get:
HDFC Millennia - covers some portion of online sites (actually most for majority)

Snapdeal covers your Facebook.
USD - Onecard (though better if you get those 3.33% cards but its also good).
Utlitly bills - AmazonPay 2% (you can also purchase amazon vouchers with Snapdeal / Millennia - 5%+)
Grocery - Snapdeal 2.5%.

Get one Axis card (no myzone LTF?)
Thank you so much 🙂

1. Recently got approval for Premier. Waiting for delivery. How I can convert to Snapdeal?
2. Axis reject my card application every time without proper reason.

If you got recently then it must be LTF, how paid?

Send mail or wait sometime to get notification in netbanking.

Contact Info:

Axis - apply c2c by visiting nearest branch.

I think it is conditional LTF. Correct?

1. USD payment of approx 10K per month
2. Facebook Ads 10K per month

You use CC for these right? There are hardly any LTF CCs with a good reward rate and zero forex markup. So you are better off using a debit card like Niyo Global with 0 forex markup to simplify things.
If you do a SWIFT transfer then go for a bank account with lowest charges (IDFC has low upfront fees, but their USD rates have an inbuilt markup anywhere from 1-3%)

3. Utility bills (Mobile, Electricity): 3000
4. Grocery (D Mart): 5-10K per month

Thank you. :)

So 5-10K per month offline on grocery and 3k on utility bills, right? I really don't see any paid card being worth it if your spends are low and spending 1-2 minutes every time you do a txn to select which card is best is also not worth it.

Just stick with 1 favorite card and use it, close all paid cards. I believe BOB Easy has a 2.5% reward rate on grocery, but depending on MCC code you might not get it
