The Tata Neu Plus HDFC Bank Credit Card pays about 2% on Non-EMI Retail Spends on partner Tata Brands (in store / online), and 1% on everything else. Below is every rate, cap and exclusion in HDFC Bank's published terms, as we last checked them on 9 October 2026.

≈1%Everything else (UPI)on the first ₹50,000 of spend a month

≈ marks a rate paid in points, valued at ₹1 a point. That is Zenidhi's conservative valuation, the same one the audit uses: the cheap end of what the points can be redeemed for, never the best transfer. Redeemed well, they can be worth more.
