Our verdict

HDFC MoneyBack+ is a well-rounded entry-level card with 10X CashPoints (up to 2.5% value-back) on Amazon, Flipkart, Swiggy, Reliance Smart SuperStore and BigBasket. Outside those partners the base earn is low, at 2 CashPoints per ₹200 or about 0.25% back. The ₹500/year fee waives easily at ₹50K spend, making it effectively free for most users.
