What it's worth to you, after the fee
Not valued. We can't value this card until the issuer publishes how it earns — every net-value number here would be a fee subtracted from rewards nobody has described. Everything we can source — the fee, the charges, the migration that put this card in your hand — is above and stands on its own; this card is simply not on the board, not in the calculator, and cannot win a best-of call until ICICI Bank publishes terms we can cite.

2 notes on the card itself: how it is issued · the network variants
The take
A legacy premium card that survives in ICICI's fee schedule and nowhere else. The pricing is unusual enough to be worth stating plainly: ₹25,000 to join — more than Sapphiro, more than Emirates Skywards Sapphiro, nearly four times Sapphiro's ₹6,500 — and then only ₹2,000 a year, with the reversal column reading NA, so unlike almost every other ICICI card there is no amount of spend that waives the recurring fee. That is a shape from an older era of Indian card pricing, where the joining fee bought a benefit bundle and the renewal was nominal. What that bundle was, no live ICICI document will tell you. The card has no product page, appears on none of the links ICICI's own credit-card listing publishes, and is named nowhere else in the MITC — not in the statement-cycle reward caps that itemise Coral, Rubyx, Sapphiro and the entry shelf, not in the lounge policy, not in the reduced-forex exceptions. If you hold it, the ₹2,000 is small and the decision is really about whether you are getting anything for it; ask ICICI in writing what the card still earns, and if the answer is thin, product-change onto Sapphiro or Rubyx, both of which have live pages, stated earn tables and a documented fee reversal.

Keep, downgrade or cancel
what we can and cannot price
Not valued. We can't value this card until the issuer publishes how it earns — every net-value number here would be a fee subtracted from rewards nobody has described. A break-even is the spend at which value crosses a fee, and we are short one side of that sentence — so this desk prints no ladder, no crossing and no ₹0 standing in for either. What we can source about this card is under Sources.

The downgrade
ICICI Bank publishes no document naming a card you can step down to, so we name none — an invented product change is a phone call you would waste. That leaves keep or cancel, and we cannot price either side of it.

The desk publishes subscribable .ics feeds for the dates it knows — offer deadlines, devaluations, expiry audits. Your renewal date is not one of them: only your statement knows it.
What's good
- The recurring fee is only ₹2,000 a year — low for a card that cost ₹25,000 to open
- Supplementary cards ₹199 each, ICICI's standard add-on price
- Still priced and serviced in ICICI's current MITC, so the account and its terms are live
Watch out
- ₹25,000 JOINING FEE against a ₹2,000 recurring charge — the price to GET this card is twelve and a half times the price to keep it
- NO spend-based fee reversal: the MITC's reversal column for this card reads NA, where Coral, Rubyx and Sapphiro all have a bar you can clear
- ICICI publishes NO product page for this card — it is absent from every link on the bank's live credit-card listing and no product URL resolves, so its earn rate, benefits and lounge quota are unstated and we decline to invent them
- Closed to new applicants
- 3.5% foreign-currency markup — the MITC's reduced-markup list does not include this card
- Finance charges 3.75% a month (45% a year)
What these points actually fly
ICICI Bank has not published what this card earns, so there are no points here to fly with — not zero points, and not points that go nowhere: nothing stated either way. The moment a benefit sheet exists we will price whatever it names.

the route in — no cutoffs published
The cutoffs and the actual route in — not the "apply now" button, the door that opens.
Closed to new applications — existing cardholders keep the card; there is no way in.
You cannot get it. The card appears on none of the ~45 credit-card links ICICI's own listing page publishes, and no product URL for it resolves. Existing holders are still serviced — the MITC prices the card and applies its general terms to it. The live ICICI cards in the same territory are Sapphiro at ₹6,500 joining / ₹3,500 annual and Rubyx at ₹3,000 / ₹2,000, both with published earn tables and a spend-based fee reversal this card never had.
ICICI Bank publishes no income or age cutoffs for this card. Blank means blank — we don't invent numbers to fill a grid.

- 10 Sept 2026ICICI's September lounge list drops four doors and adds BhogapuramThe prior edition opened Bhubaneswar's landside Bird Lounge, Vadodara's Premium Lounge, Visakhapatnam's Airr Lounge and Bar, and Dehradun's landside Bird Lounge, and filed Ahmedabad T2 international as The Lounge opposite Gate 3 → Those four rooms are gone. Bhubaneswar keeps O'Vetra near Gate 8, Dehradun keeps Carnations in the security hold, Vadodara is off the list, and Visakhapatnam's rows are Encalm domestic and international at Bhogapuram. Ahmedabad T2 international is Adani Silver Lounge - International, Gate 08, and it is not asterisked
ICICI re-saved its consolidated domestic lounge list on 10 September 2026 and moved rooms, not quotas. Four doors an Annexure-1 card used to open are off the list: Bhubaneswar's landside Bird Lounge (O'Vetra, airside near Gate 8, stays), Vadodara entirely, Visakhapatnam's Airr Lounge and Bar, and Dehradun's landside Bird Lounge (Carnations, in the security hold, stays). Visakhapatnam's replacement is two Encalm rooms at Bhogapuram, which this map does not carry yet — the airport is not in our coordinate file, so those doors are recorded here and not drawn. Ahmedabad's T2 international row is no longer The Lounge opposite Gate 3. It is Adani Silver Lounge - International, first floor, Gate 08, and the row has no asterisk, so the whole Annexure-1 board gets it at each card's own quarterly quota rather than the three unlimited cards alone. Noida's three Jewar rows are still on the PDF and still unmapped.

- 29 Jul 2026Times Black publishes its eligibility bar and swaps BLADE for Thumby Aviation
- 1 Jul 2026ICICI's lounge-gate exemption expires for Adani One and MakeMyTripAdani One ICICI Signature, Adani One ICICI Platinum and the MakeMyTrip ICICI Bank Credit Card were exempt from the ₹75,000-per-quarter spend gate on complimentary domestic lounge access — "valid till Jun 30, 2026" → All three now "require spends of ₹ 75,000 to be made in a calendar quarter to unlock airport lounge access in the next calendar quarter, with effect from Jul 01, 2026"
ICICI's MITC, headed "Last updated on Aug 2nd, 2026", carries the expiry date inside the exemption list itself and then restates it as a dated instruction below. No lounge visit is removed — MakeMyTrip keeps 2 domestic a quarter plus 1 international, Adani One Signature 4 a quarter plus 2 Priority Pass, Adani One Platinum 2 a quarter — but all of them now cost ₹3 lakh of routed annual spend on top of the fee, which reprices the ₹750 Adani One Platinum hardest. The ₹75,000 excludes rent, government, education, EMI, fees, interest, DCC and reversals, and the qualifying quarter is offset (26th to 25th), so the spend that unlocks Oct-Dec was made between 26 June and 25 September. Worth flagging for the desk: ICICI's own "Upcoming changes to Credit Card features and charges" page, re-read 28 August 2026, still lists MakeMyTrip among the exempt cards with no expiry, and never names the Adani One pair at all. Two live ICICI documents, two different answers; the MITC is the regulated one and the more recently dated, so it is the one we follow.
