SBI Card launched BPCL SBI Card Octane in December 2020. It is an upgraded version of the BPCL SBI Credit Card. While the Octane variant does offer better rewards and offers, it also carries a much higher annual fee of Rs. 1,499,, whereas the other variant had a fee of only Rs. 499. BPCL SBI Card Octane gives you a 7.25% value back on fuel purchases at Bharat Petroleum fuel stations: 6.25% as reward points (25x reward rate), along with a 1% fuel surcharge waiver. You also receive 10x reward points for spending on dining and movie tickets, apart from the fuel benefits. As far as travel benefits are concerned, the card entitles you to 4 complimentary accesses to domestic airport lounges every year (maximum 1 per quarter). If you travel a lot by car or motorbike, this is probably one of the best offerings in the market right now, as you get a quite high reward rate of 6.5% (and a 1% surcharge waiver) on fuel spends at all BPCL stations across the country (the 1% surcharge waiver is applicable even at non-BPCL stations).
