RuPay + UPI

The BOBCARD HPCL ENERGIE is a low-fee fuel card for HP petrol pump users. It earns about 4% back at HPCL outlets, LPG and the HP Pay app, and runs on RuPay so it can be linked to UPI.

Both accelerated categories are capped at 1,000 points per statement, and since mid-2026 the fuel rate applies only at HPCL outlets on BOBCARD’s eligible list.

In short: A ₹499 fuel card (waived at ₹50,000 non-UPI spend) earning about 4% at HPCL on up to roughly ₹6,250 of fuel a month, about 1.7% on utilities and department stores, and 0.33% elsewhere. Lounge visits need ₹20,000 spend in the previous quarter.

Rewards: how the card earns

SpendPoints per ₹150Cap per statementValue at ₹0.25
HPCL fuel, LPG, HP Pay241,000~4%
Utilities and department stores101,000~1.7%
Other spends2—~0.33%

HP Pay wallet loads and direct debits do not earn the accelerated rate or the fuel waiver.

Worked example: Spend ₹5,000 a month at HPCL, ₹4,000 on utilities and ₹8,000 on other purchases. You earn 800 + 267 + 107 = 1,174 points, worth about ₹290, plus ₹50 of fuel surcharge waived — about ₹4,000 a year. Spend more than about ₹6,250 a month at HPCL and the extra earns nothing.

What earns nothing

Wallet loads (including HP Pay wallet) and direct debits earn no accelerated points. UPI spends earn points but do not count towards the fee waiver.
