@PointsPro BOI DC fetches better rewards compared to SBI even with Elite.
After 3.3L , SBI VDC can be used as a fallback method.
But I'll agree on the fact that SBI has been consistent for a while now

🚨SBI Debit card for credit card payments
SBI Rupay virtual and physical card is a great card for getting rewards.
Other better cards (in terms of rewards) come and go, but this one is super consistent.
Been using for over 15 years and no fuss rewards easily. 👍

SBI Debit Card gives Rs 2750 rewards per month! This is even more than the current HDFC easyshop rewards! 🔥

Now you have been in markets for last 2 years. Make a list of folks who were super bullish in late 2024 and never warned on froth n kept pumping this story that story of multibagger Amritkal viksit bharat golden microcap opportunity daily multibagger etc etc . Ensure you think 1000 times before following them blindly. They will change their mask n come in next bull cycle again with a new story. Don't repeat the same mistake.

Amex Platinum Travel – Devaluation with a silver lining. 😉
There are few upsides for ccgeeks as well, and some new #iykyk stuff too !
1️⃣ Fee waiver opportunity (for RECENT / NEW cards only)
If you’ve recently received the Platinum Travel by flipping another Amex card, you can reach out to Amex support and request a fee waiver citing the devaluation.
👉 Fee waivers are being accepted via chat (AFTER fee has been charged)
👉 There is high probability of also receiving the welcome benefit, though there’s no official confirmation yet but that's just a bonus if it works. (10K MR points)
2️⃣ Extra Milestone math (if timed right)
Complete your ₹4L milestone before 9th March → You’ll receive 40K MR points + Taj voucher (as per current structure).
BUT Post 9th March, if you spend an additional ₹3L → You unlock 22,500 MR points at the ₹7L milestone. Given this is peak tax payment time, you can chose this to pay your taxes and earn some reward points if you don't have better cards.
Customer Care has confirmed this several times now.
3️⃣ Shopwise - Recent Upgrade from Gyftr.
Amazon Pay & Amazon Shopping vouchers are limited to 10K each per account, where other GV's are uncapped. You can get Amazon Pay & Amazon shopping voucher unlimited too by using different phone numbers. ( This 'feature' wasn't available in gyftr, the order used to fail if you used same card on different account )
So if you have 4 phone numbers in household, you can buy 40K ASV + 40K Amazon Pay, don't even need addons as of now. 😉
_____________________________________________________________________
In effect, with the right timing, the card can still deliver strong value despite the upcoming “devaluation” given the card is free for recent takers and unlocks a new milestone which works a revaluation for some people.
As always:
✔️ Verify details with Amex support individually (helps in claims if they don't deliver as per current commitments).
✔️ Do not overspend & do your own research before taking any action.
✔️ Found it helpful ? Share with your friends who have Platinum Travel or recently got it in upgrades offers.

@burakamii @Macrobysunil Any specific logic? Ideally it should adjust to the spot price of the day 1 of new month right?
English

@Macrobysunil This massive price difference in the contracts will be adjusted to the downside when everyone has moved, right?
English

🚨 Silver rollover costs are EXPLODING in India 🇮🇳
What is a rollover cost?
When you hold a futures contract and move from the expiring month to the next one,
the price difference you pay is called the rollover cost.
If next month is higher → you pay to roll (contango)
If next month is lower → you earn to roll (backwardation)
What’s happening now?
📈 MCX silver rollover costs are at historic extremes
📉 Far above anything seen since launch

@Macrobysunil Can we trust platinum quality sold in Malabar, Tanishq etc? I mean it's not mainstream as silver or gold so unsure about quality.
English

@AlfrednFincher I think it's not possible from brokers like Zerodha.
English

@AlfrednFincher I think to be safer, go for Qatar for this offer

New year couldn't begin better!

@deepakshenoy @Iamsamirarora @grok explain me like I'm 5 what Sameer mentioned and what crisis Deepak Shenoy is talking about.
English

@Iamsamirarora It will always hurt us no matter when, so I believe it should be done anyhow - we have taken short term pain for long term gain in the past, but of course it takes a crisis to do that.

Nexon CNG - Fuel Efficiency and Basic Opinion
When I received this Tata Nexon iCNG from Tata, it had 75% CNG filled.
I drove it in various conditions—village, city, and highways—over the last three days, and it returned roughly 17 km/kg in CNG mode. The low CNG warning is there now. The tank capacity is 9 kg.
Performance in CNG mode isn’t very different from Petrol mode. You feel slightly less power only during quick overtaking or while driving on an incline on a flyover, and even then, only if you’re familiar with the capabilities of its Petrol mode.
Just like all cars, it has some shortcomings but it’s a fine car to have as a primary car if you need a balance of safety, fuel efficiency in City, power on highways, good comfort on all road conditions and top notch convenience features kit.
I will cover everything in a detailed video tomorrow. All points are noted down. :)

Some more observations with Nexon CNG after driving it for evening drive for 40 odd km.
✅ CNG is mostly over so I drove it with Petrol and it returned around 16 kmpl with a mixed style of driving. I was trying a few things with the car to check its limits.
✅ Braking at 90 kmph is fine if you hold the steering hard. Curvv has a huge edge in this because of the ATLAS platform.
✅ It’s a good car to have if you need just one car for 4 persons. It has good ground clearance to tackle the bad roads, enough power to take you anywhere, excellent feature kit so that we don’t have FOMO in the next 6-7 years.
✅ Using CNG for City traffic and Petrol for highway use is the best combination to strike a balance of best fuel efficiency and power.
✅ Auto headlights, auto IRVM, auto rain sensing wipers (haven’t used it yet), rear wiper, blind spot monitoring, 360 degree camera is extremely helpful when you get used to it.
✅ I personally appreciate that Tata chose tech practicality over cup holders in the middle area. It has a wireless charging pad and some charging sockets in that area. Handbrake is neatly tucked in with a meaty cover.
✅ Looks smart & big. People do notice it especially when it is well cleaned. :) Color, fonts and icon theme for infotainment & cockpit is mature and easy on eyes.
⚠️ I think cruise control isn’t there with CNG variants.
⚠️ Plastic doesn’t creak, if of good quality too but instead of using pattern design they should use leather finish kind of design, that will make dashboard look more upmarket and less plasticky.
⚠️ The vibration is evident if you don’t slot the right gear at the right time. Engine growl is good but people looking for refinement, may find it loud. Under 2000 rpm, it glides nicely and isn’t loud either.
⚠️ I appreciate how car has full rubber beading on all doors, rubber edges look neat too, panoramic sunroof has proper mechanical rubber cover but bonnet panel gap is glaringly thick. :(
⚠️ Inner Wheel arch cover is there and 215 mm tyre width helps in better road grip but in 3 digit speeds, car start losing the grip because of high ground clearance. You need to understand this bargain when a passenger car has high ground clearance.
⚠️ Default seat belt warning is extremely loud but thankfully you can low down the volume in system notification volume from infotainment screen.
⚠️ Call me old school, but I just love their Altroz’s steering & mounted buttons. I find buttons on this two spoke steering slightly sharp and sometimes you need more force than it should be to press the horn. Otherwise, horn should be pressed just under the digital logo which takes some time to get used to it. Naturally we press logo area only.
