All 12 Indian Overseas Bank cards

Fees run ₹0 to ₹750, and 6 of them are genuinely free for life; 1 charges nothing a year but a joining fee to get in. We cannot value 6 of them: Indian Overseas Bank publishes no fee or no earn table for those cards, so they are listed as "Not valued". Each card shows what it pays back a year after its fee at ₹75,000 a month, and our verdict: 9 keep, 3 downgrade, 0 cancel.
