I'm looking to get the cheapest possible RuPay Select debit card since my Amazon Prime membership has expired and I need it as soon as possible.

I was earlier looking to get PNB RuPay Select debit card but when I found that w.e.f. 5th June, 2023, annual charges has been increase from Rs. 500 + 18% GST to Rs. 750 + 18% GST, I'm not chasing it anymore.

Next option available for me is, change my Bank of Baroda Advantage Savings Account (Rs. 2k MAB) to Super Savings Account (Rs. 20k MAB) or Professional Savings Account (Rs. 25k MAB) and avail RuPay Select debit card as FYF and from second year onwards for Rs. 500 + 18% GST.

Another one is, opening a savings account with Union Bank of India which currently offers RuPay Select DC at lowest possible price for annual charge of Rs. 400 + 18% GST. My query is, which savings account variant should be opened to get the DC as from the following link, I can see only high MAB requirement account variants (Rs. 1 lac or more) show RuPay Select DC is available. Someone who has any experience with this, can throw some light on this please?

Union Bank has updated its systems and only High Variant accounts are given option to get Higher variant Cards, ex: normal accounts get only Classic cards, and 15K accounts get Platinum cards option in their system(Personalised cards which cime with ur name on card).

If you can get instant cards(no name), you can take for any account. 

So you may need to find a branch which has instant cards of Select variant and get it attached to ur account.

PS: Saying this from my experience, but may vary with others.

by instant cards, you mean to say 'insta kit' which doesn't have name on the debit card printed and is given right away at the time of opening an account, right?
