The Best Credit Card in India

According to my experience and usage, I would regard Manhattan Platinum Credit Card as the best credit card at present in India because they are the one and only credit card in India which offers you a flat 5% cash back on your spends on departmental stores and/or super markets in India.  This I can assuringly say that no other credit cards in India offers.  This I am saying because the purchase you are going to make at the super markets and departmental stores are mostly essential purchases like the home needs, vegetables, groceries, etc.  For those who don’t know Manhattan Credit Card is part of the Standard Chartered Bank Credit Cards.


 


The only condition is that you will need to make a minimum purchase of Rs. 500 each time to get the cash back on your purchase.  This cash back will be credited to your credit card statement on the same month of your purchase and hence you can see the saving that you are making every month on your monthly grocery and department store bills.


5% cash back


Hence anyway you are going to make such purchases every month, if you use your Manhattan Platinum Credit Card you can enjoy 5% flat cash back on your purchase of Rs. 500 and above on each purchase.


 


Other Benefits


Manhattan Platinum Credit Card also helps you earn 5 times the rewards points i.e. you will earn 5 reward points on each Rs. 100 being spent.  The purchase made at the departmental stores or super stores or super markets are not eligible for the 5 times rewards points because you are already earning 5% cash back from them.


 


Although there is an annual charge applicable for this credit card, it may just outweigh the benefits in the form of cash back you get from them and hence I would personally suggest fro those who are looking to find the best credit card in India, to go ahead and try Manhattan Platinum Credit Card for better outcome and results in terms of credit card usage.


 


You can apply for this Manhattan Platinum credit card by calling the Standard Chartered Credit Card representative or visit Standard Chartered Bank India website.
