HDFC About This Card
HDFC Diners Club Privilege is arguably the best value premium card in India. Unlimited domestic lounges AND 12 international visits for just ₹1,000/year is unmatched. The 10X SmartBuy rewards add massive travel value. Only downside: carry a Visa/MC backup for the ~5% of merchants that don't accept Diners Club.
