IRCTC RBL Bank Credit Card: rewards, caps and exclusions
The IRCTC RBL Bank Credit Card pays about 2.5% on Train ticket booking of all classes from IRCTC Website/ IRCTC Mobile App (online), on the first ₹40,000 of spend a cycle, and 0.5% on everything else. Below is every rate, cap and exclusion in RBL Bank's published terms, as we last checked them on 9 October 2026.
What it earns
≈ 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.
What earns nothing
Spend in these categories earns no rewards on this card, however it is paid for:
- Fuel
- Utility bills
- Insurance premiums
- Cash withdrawals and fees
- Money transfers
- Rent
- Education fees
- Wallet loads
- Government payments
- EMI conversions
What costs extra
Worse than earning nothing: RBL Bank charges a fee for these.
- 1% on Fee on Rental Transactions, plus GST
- 1% on Fee on Utility Spends, plus GST
