1 Orchid Rewards point is worth ₹1.00 in India.
₹1.00₹1,000 per 1,000 points, our house mark
held at ₹1.00 · re-marked 10 Jul
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.
The mark has 2 dated points in data/valuation-history.yaml, each one pinned to a quantified event in the tracker — no interpolation. The last move was re-marked 10 Jul. How we value a point →

also known as: Orchid Petals
The Orchid Hotels & Resorts' own programme (orchidhotel.com) — not Royal Orchid Hotels Ltd, a different chain whose programme is Regenta Rewards; this record sat under the wrong company until 2026-08-09, and everything on it has been re-read against the right one. The currency is Petals, and the operator's own T&C prices it outright: "Value of each Petal is Re.1 at Participating Hotels and Participating Restaurants, also Petals are available for redemption on Orchid Rewards store with 2 Petals = Re.1." So ₹1.00 is the house value AND the ceiling — par against your own bill is as good as a rebate coin gets — and ₹0.50 is now a PUBLISHED floor (the merchandise store) rather than the ₹0.30 guess it replaces. Petals accrue as a percentage rebate on net, pre-tax room and F&B spend under a paid tier ladder (Prive / Gold / Platinum), so the cost basis is a membership fee, not card spend — no card on this desk earns them, and Magnify Mag Miles at 1:2 is the only door in from anything we index.

Straight answers
The questions people actually type about Orchid Rewards — answered from the same data as everything above, with the same numbers.
What is 1 Orchid Rewards point worth in INR?
Our desk marks Orchid Rewards at ₹1.00 a point — so 1,000 points are worth ₹1,000 and 10,000 are worth ₹10,000. That is the number every route on this page is priced with. The ₹0.50 floor is the redemption you can always fall back on; the ₹1.00 ceiling is the best sweet spot we have actually verified. The mark is holding flat, last reviewed 9 Aug 2026. The valuation index prices it against every other program we cover.
What is the Orchid Rewards transfer ratio?
Every ratio on this page is read source points : destination points and is never inverted. The cheapest way in on our board is 1:1 from SBI Travel Credits — cheapest by what it costs in ₹ to mint a point, which is not always the fattest-looking ratio . We track 3 live routes in and none out, each listed above with what one point becomes, the cards that may ride it, and the per-card exceptions where an issuer gives some cardholders a different rate.
Which Indian cards earn Orchid Rewards?
None — no Indian card earns Orchid Rewards directly, so it is a transfer-only balance here. 36 cards feed it instead, and the hardest converters are Axis Olympus, Axis Horizon and Axis Bank PRIMUS. The ratio you are offered is therefore the whole decision. The card list above names each of them with its rank, its ratio and what one of its points becomes here.
Can I transfer Axis Bank points to Orchid Rewards?
Yes — Axis Olympus earns Axis EDGE Miles and moves them here at 1:4, which makes one of its points 4.0 points and ₹4.00 of value at our house mark. 36 cards feed Orchid Rewards; it is the best of them. Everything that bank's points can reach — caps by card tier included — is on its transfer page.
When did Orchid Rewards last devalue?
We hold no dated events for Orchid Rewards at all — no devaluation, no buff, nothing sourced — and we will not fill that gap with a guess. The nerf-risk grade reads stable, which on a program with no logged history means untested rather than safe.
