Our verdict
SBI Card has stopped issuing new Air India SBI Signature cards; existing holders keep the card. It was the premium card in the Air India co-branded range, earning 10 reward points per ₹100 on Air India tickets (about 2.5% back) and 4 points per ₹100 (about 1%) on other eligible spends. The 3.5% forex markup and no fee waiver are the main limitations.
Pros
- 10 reward points per ₹100 on Air India ticket purchases (about 2.5% back)
- 4 reward points per ₹100 (about 1%) on other eligible spends
- Domestic airport lounge access
Cons
- ₹4,999 annual fee with no spend-based waiver option
- 3.5% forex markup — high for a card targeting international travelers
- Rewards are Air India-focused — little value if you fly other airlines
