The Union Bank Uni Carbon Credit Card is a good option for frequent HPCL fuel users who benefit from its high cashback and fuel surcharge waiver. The welcome bonus, milestone benefits, and non-fuel rewards add further value. However, the caps on monthly cashback and limited redemption options might not be ideal for those with low fuel spends or seeking diverse benefits.
