Expert Verdict

The Axis LIC Signature is a lifetime-free card whose best feature is 8 domestic lounge visits plus a 2x boost on insurance spends, useful mainly to LIC premium payers. The Rs. 0.20 point value, removal of utility earning and 3.5% forex markup mean it is a free lounge-and-insurance card rather than a rewards earner.

What we like
+Lifetime-free card with zero joining and annual fee
+8 complimentary domestic airport lounge visits a year, generous for a no-fee card
+2x points (2 points per Rs. 100) on insurance and on international spends, double the base rate
+Lost card liability cover, up to 15% dining discounts and 1% fuel surcharge waiver (capped Rs. 400/month)
What we don't
Low point value of Rs. 0.20, so base 1 point per Rs. 100 is only ~0.2%
Utilities and telecom were excluded from earning effective 20 June 2025
Education, fuel, gold/jewellery, government, rent, wallet loads, cash advances and loan repayments earn no points
3.5% forex markup despite the 2x boost on international spends
