The BPCL SBI Card OCTANE is a single-purpose tool: if you fill up at BPCL pumps and spend roughly ₹5,000–₹10,000 a month on fuel, the 25 reward points per ₹100 (6.25% back) plus the 1% surcharge waiver — about 7.25% combined — is among the best fuel returns in India, and the ₹1,499 + GST fee is easily waived at ₹2 lakh annual spend.
Look elsewhere if you are not loyal to BPCL or want an all-rounder. Eligible card-paid fuel reward points cap at 2,500 per statement cycle, the 10X dining/grocery/movie rate is capped at 7,500 points monthly, everything else earns just 1 point per ₹100, and points redeem at a fixed ₹0.25 each — so its value is concentrated almost entirely at the BPCL pump.
Reward exclusions
Eligibility follows the merchant category code and transaction data received by the issuer, so the merchant name alone may not determine whether a transaction earns rewards.
Eligible BPCL fuel paid through the card channel earns accelerated points within the fuel cap. The dining, grocery, department-store and movie multiplier has a separate cap and merchant exceptions.

The card has a joining fee of ₹1,499 plus GST and an annual (renewal) fee of ₹1,499 plus GST. The annual fee is waived if you spend ₹2 lakh or more on the card in the preceding year.
