If I want a sbi credit card for discounts purposes, which one is the cheapest?
(I already have sbi CB)

SimplyClick is what most people would say, but you could also try BPCL card which has both fuel and dining/grocery benefits and a very low Rs.50k threshold for annual fee waiver.

Thanks. I will check it out.
My yearly fuel expenses will not reach 50k but dining/grocery benefits are good to know.

Yes bpcl will be good choice
And you can do UPI also from this since it's offered in rupay variant.

All 3 cards available on RuPay and @ashwink's Anti-India Mastercard.

Gazab ka competition hoga, @ashwink's Anti-India Mastercard promote karega aur mai RuPay Card.

Gloves kharid k laya aaj, aaja @ashwink ache se dhulayi karta hu, agar Anti-India mastercard promote kiye toh

First rupay card with 3% reward rate (on travel)😜. Earlier Snapdeal was highest at 2.5%.

Btw, any idea if these sbi cards give same reward rates on UPI spends too? And if there is any limit for the same?
