The ICICI HPCL Super Saver is a fuel-and-household card from ICICI Bank on the Visa network, rated 2.5 out of 5 on our published formula. It is best for fuel plus household bills at a low fee.
Our verdict
A cheaper alternative to the BPCL Octane if your fuel spend is moderate. The 5% on utilities and groceries is what makes the ₹500 fee easy to justify. If your spending is broader than fuel and utilities, a flat-rate card from our best cashback credit cards list will usually beat it.

Worth knowing
The 18% GST on the annual fee is the number most comparisons quietly omit. A ₹2,500 card actually costs ₹2,950 a year. Factor that in before deciding whether the rewards clear the bar. The same arithmetic applies here: the sticker fee is ₹500, the real cost is ₹590.
Compare with
| Card | Rating | Effective return | Annual fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| SBI Cashback Credit Card | 3.2/5 | 4.2% | ₹999 |
| Tata Neu Infinity HDFC Bank Credit Card | 3.2/5 | 2.8% | ₹1,499 |
| HDFC Bank Millennia Credit Card | 2.8/5 | 2.4% | ₹1,000 |
Fees above are shown before the 18% GST that is charged on top. Effective reward rate is our own blended estimate for a typical spend mix — not the accelerated rate an issuer advertises on one category.
