2. Fuel Transactions:

All fees are subject to GST as per government regulations.

"If you redeem your rewards towards statement credit (CashBack), a ₹50 redemption fee will be charged"

So Millennia is now officially worse than Amazon Pay ICICI, Flipkart Axis and their own HDFC Swiggy. And of course SBI Cashback is far superior.
