Values are what we think a point is worth in India.
Fees run ₹0 to ₹9,999, and 1 of them is genuinely free for life. We cannot value 1 of them: Bandhan Bank publishes no earn table for that card, so it is listed as "Not valued". Each card shows what it pays back a year after its fee at ₹75,000 a month, and our verdict: 4 keep, 1 downgrade, 0 cancel.
