The PNB RuPay Select Card offers a budget-friendly option with decent reward points, domestic lounge access, and value-added benefits like wellness discounts. However, the limited acceptance of RuPay cards, lower reward rate, and high interest charges are drawbacks to consider. If you value affordability and primarily spend domestically, this card might be suitable. However, for broader acceptance, faster reward accumulation, or premium features, exploring other alternatives is recommended.
