IndianOil Axis Bank Credit Card: full review

The IndianOil Axis Bank card is the go-to card for Indian Oil loyalists. The 5% effective return (4% rewards + 1% surcharge waiver) at IOCL pumps with RuPay UPI functionality makes it genuinely useful for daily commuters. Like all fuel co-brands, its value drops significantly outside the fuel category.
