HDFC Tata Neu Infinity Credit Card is a good mid-level credit card for people who regularly shop on at least one Tata Group brand such as BigBasket, 1MG, Croma, Westside, Taj Hotel etc. For these Tata Group brands, its gives very high valueback.

Its airport lounge program, although requires minimum quarterly spend to get the free lounge access, you don’t need to use the lounge access within the same or next quarter. You can accumulate the lounge access for next almost 10 months. Upon qualifying quarter, you get 120 days to claim the Domestic Lounge Access voucher. After claiming, you further get 180 days to use the voucher. So, in a way, it provides you a 300 days window to use the Domestic Airpot Lounge voucher after the end of the quarter in which you made the minimum required spend for Lounge Access. That’s a great flexibility which is not provided by other similar lounge programs.  is also very attractive as there is no minimum spend condition to get free airport lounge.

Another benefit is that the Neu Coins limits on utility bills payment and insurance are very high which are sufficient for almost all retail customers. So, this card can also be considered if you have high utility bills or insurance payments.
