Times Black ICICI Bank Credit Card — unlimited lounge access plus a fuel surcharge waiver.
Times Black ICICI Bank Credit Card carries a fuel surcharge waiver alongside its unlimited lounge access, which is why it wins this list — but it's a ₹20,000-a-year super-premium travel card first, and a fuel card only incidentally. If fuel savings specifically are your main goal, its high fee and ₹2,00,000/month income requirement likely make it overkill; the quiz can point you to a dedicated fuel card at a fraction of the cost.
Is this the cheapest way to save on fuel surcharges?
No — at ₹20,000/year it's one of the more expensive cards in the catalog. Several lower-fee cards in our lineup are built specifically around fuel savings at a much lower cost.
What income does this card need?
ICICI lists ₹2,00,000/month for Times Black — well above what a fuel-focused shopper typically needs for a genuinely useful fuel-waiver card.
Why did an expensive travel card win a 'fuel savings' list?
Our scoring engine ranks every card carrying the fuel-waiver tag by its total score — Times Black's strength elsewhere (lounge, travel) pulled it to the top even though fuel savings alone isn't its main selling point. Take the quiz for a fee-conscious, fuel-first pick.
