only on retail purchases and if the previous month’s balance has been cleared in full.

month’s dues in full, the grace period would be:

Credit Card
Most Important Terms & Conditions

1. For a purchase dated 9th March, interest-free grace period is 9th March to 27th April = 50 days
2. For a purchase dated 29th March, interest-free grace period is 29th March to 27th April = 30 days.
Thus, the grace period can vary depending upon the date of the purchase. However, if you
have not paid the previous month’s balance in full or if you have availed of cash from an ATM,
then there will be no interest-free period.
VI. Finance Charges for both Revolving Credit and Cash Advance:
Finance charges are payable on both i.e. revolving credit and cash advance at the monthly
percentage rate on all transactions from the date of transaction in the event of credit cardholder
choosing not to pay his/her balance in full, and on all cash advances when taken by the credit
cardholder, till they are paid back. Finance charges, if payable, are debited to the credit
cardholder’s account till the outstanding on the card is paid in full.
- Finance charges on cash advances are applicable from the date of transaction until the
payment is made in full.
- When the customer carries forward any outstanding amount or avails of cash advance, a
finance charge calculated by average daily balance method, will apply to balances carried
forward and to fresh billings.

3
- If a credit cardholder avails of the revolving credit facility of the PNB credit card and
hence chooses to pay an amount less than the total amount due reflected in the
monthly billing statement, the entire outstanding amount would attract finance charges
and all new transactions will also attract finance charges, till such time as the previous
outstanding amount are repaid in full.
- Rate of Interest is 2.95% p.m. (i.e.35.89% annualized)
- In case of cards against Fixed Deposit, rate of interest is 1.5% per month which comes
to 19.56% annualized
Late Payment Charges:
- Late payment charges will be applicable if the minimum amount due is not paid by the
payment due date. Clear funds need to be credited to PNB credit card account on or
before the payment due date to avoid late payment charges. Late payment charges are
applicable on outstanding Total Amount Due as under:
1. `1000/- or Less – Nil
2. `1001 to `5000/ – `500
3. `5001 to `10000 – `600

VII. Over limit charges are applicable on total outstanding exceeding the Credit Limit
at the rate of 2.5% of the over the limit amount as per schedule of fees and charges

Illustrative example for interest calculation:
Assuming that you purchased a gadget for`1200 on 22 nd March and jewelry for`800 on
31st March and you have made a minimum payment due that ìs100 on 28 th April. The
interest will be calculated as under:
- Billing cycle 9th March to 8th April
- Payment Due Date: 28 th of April
- Minimum Payment Due: `100.
- Date Minimum Payment of ` 100 Made: April 28th
- Balance carried forward (Revolved Amount): `1900
Finance Charges /Interest Calculation:
Interest is Calculated by calculating interest factor for one day as under:
Interest for 1 day on balance of̀100 @2.95% p.m.= 2.95%/30 (No. of days in a month) =
0.09834%

5
Interest Calculated = Outstanding Amount X 0.0009834 X No. of Days amount is outstanding
a) Interest on `1200 for 38 days – from 22nd March to 28th April = `44.84
b) Interest on `800 for 29 days – from 31st March to 28th April = `22.81
c) Interest on `1900 for 10 days – from 29th April to 8th May = `18.68
d) Total interest charged in Billing Cycle on outstanding up to 8th May =`86.33
e) GST 18% on interest: `15.53
f) Total Outstanding: `2001.86
Please note that the Finance Charges and other charges are subject to change at the
discretion of PNB. Also please note that if the credit cardholder exceeds the credit limit of
the accounts, ‘Over Limit Charges’ will be levied on the account. For a list of charges that
may be levied at specific instances, please refer to the Schedule of Fees and Charges in
