Yes, you will be. The same happened with me last year when all of a sudden they increased the spend criteria for Flipkart CC from 2LC to 3.5LC and I had to cover additional 1.5LC in 2-3 months.

I would suggest you to get it closed before the annual renewal date since the min spend is now 400 for earning EDGE rewards, and now the transactions made at IOCL pumps using UPI on CC would also incur the fuel surcharge..not at all worth the headache.

Unable to figure out what is the devaluation here, can someone point it? Is it only for fee reversal? 

Earlier the maximum 4% rewards value we can earn is on 5000 spends per month. Now also it seems to be the case.

yeah they did 3 things...

1. increased min txn value from 100 to 400 for that 20 points eligibility
2. fee reversal criteria changed from 50k to 3.5L
3. welcome benefit modified a bit... earlier its was 250 cashback directly, now 1250 edge points... devaluation here is that you can't get any good voucher for 1250 points as most good vouchers available are of bit higher value.. amazon/flipkart I think need min 10k edge points accumulated.. some others like uber, apollo etc too need 5k points. So they're indirectly forcing you to spend more if you want better gv.

But its kind of ironic how they won't give points on spends more than 5k per month but expect people to spend 3.5L (ie 29.2k per month) for fee waiver lol
