How we got this ₹ figure
₹1.00 is our HOUSE value for a point — what a disciplined traveller actually clears, not the best redemption we have ever seen (₹1.00, the ceiling) and not the worst you can always fall back on (₹0.50, the floor). It is the number every route on this page is priced with.
We hold one dated point for IRCTC HDFC Bank Reward Points — the mark itself. There is no earlier valuation on our record, so this page shows no trend line rather than drawing one. How we value a point →

IRCTC HDFC Bank Credit Card1.0%HDFC Bank / IRCTCA rail-only closed loop with a rupee printed on it, and HDFC says so twice: "Rewards points can only be redeemed from the HDFC Bank Smartbuy website and also only on Train tickets bookings", and "the reward points are not transferable and cannot be combined with the points accrued on any other HDFC Bank card account". So this is NOT hdfc-reward-points — no catalogue, no statement credit, no KrisFlyer, no Avios, nothing but an AC berth. The ₹1 peg holds on Points+Pay at SmartBuy and is a hard ceiling. Two things pull the realised rate under it: HDFC charges ₹99 + GST on every successful redemption, which is a 10% toll on a 1,000-point burn and swallows a 100-point one whole, and points may cover at most 70% of the fare, all passengers and IRCTC service charges included. Balance expires 2 years after your last earn or burn.
