Can you guys suggest one or two all rounder Credit Cards?

I have the following CCs

  1. HDFC Millenia (it just lost its lounge access ability)
  2. HSBC Visa Platinum
  3. Axis MyZone Rupay Card (Converted from Flipkart Axis Card for Credit on UPI access)
  4. IDFC First Millenia
  5. SimplyClick SBI VISA

But I want to replace all of these with one or two all rounder cards that gives me a wide variety of benefits (cashback, lounge, discounts, international payments, etc).

Request you all to put down your suggestions.

ICICI Amazon is hands down the easiest card to use.

I have applied for it so many times over the last 2-3 years yet it keeps getting rejected

Agree. The best ever card if you're not looking for lounge access.

Try to get a hdfc regalia and sbi cashback cc. For UPI use kiwi app it's virtual rupay cc.

Hdfc now provides a virtual rupay card on all its credit cards, though kiwi has better cashback.

No international lounge access. Also some condition on spending every quarter.

Standard chartered ultimate. Very good reward system.. 1rp=1rs. + golf + 12-12 domestic and priority pass lounge, etc. I have 1) Regalia gold due to salary acc 2) Standard chartered ultimate my favorite
3) amazonpay icici vgood for amazon shopping.

Ultimate is quite decent, but the reward redemption doesn't offer that many options

@Tr0jan All banks are refreshing their CCs. Some are getting downgraded as well. Lounge Access is now spend based on a lot of cards.

SBI Cashback Credit Card + Amex MRCC + Amex Gold Charge trifecta is what you'll be able to utilise fully if you have ~30k monthly spends or less.

@SebastianVettel I think I have more than 30K spend per month as I make all my bill payments through CCs.

I would suggest going for millennia. Sure it lost its lounge access, but that's a core hdfc bank card. Based on this foundation you can climb up to DCB. And for other offers, you may take tata neu hdfx, it has the best lounge offer ig.
Above anything, try to keep a core card and build around it.

@one_for_all Good suggestion but I am seeing online everywhere, people are using 500 different cards, redeeming points and getting free stays in a lot of 5 Star hotels. How do people even keep track?!
