Expert Verdict

The IDBI Royale Signature is a free Visa card with a flat 3 Delight Points per Rs 100 (about 0.75% value), 4 domestic lounge visits and a Rs 25 lakh air accident cover. Lacking accelerated categories, milestones and international perks, it is a respectable no-cost everyday card rather than a high-reward option.
