The Minimum Amount Due (MAD) will be calculated as below:
MAD = 5% of Purchase and Cash Withdrawal+ 100% of Joining
Fees, Cash Withdrawal Fee, Interest on cash withdrawal, GST &
GST on Interest
MAD = 5%*(5000+2000) + 100%*(1000+100+18+35.5+6.4) =
1509.89
Minimum Amount Due will be Rs. 1509.89
Minimum Amount Payable: Without prejudice to the liability of the
Card Member to immediately pay all charges incurred, the Card
Member may exercise the option to pay only the Minimum Amount
Due (MAD) indicated in the statement by the due date.
The Minimum Amount Due shall be 5% of the outstanding amount
or such other amount as may be determined by Axis Bank at its
sole discretion. In case of any repayment through instalments, the
instalment amount due during the statement period will be added
to the Minimum Amount Due. If the total outstanding is more than
the credit or cash limit, then the amount by which the credit or cash
limit has been exceeded will also be included in the Minimum
Amount Due.
Minimum Amount Due shall also include unpaid Minimum Amount
Due of the previous statements, if any. Interest will be charged if
the Total Amount Due is not paid by the payment due date even if
the Minimum Amount Due has been paid. If customer has
registered for Auto Debit facility towards Credit Card repayment
and has selected Minimum Amount Due option, then the same will
be executed on the due date provided no amount is paid by the
customer before due date.
If customer has paid an amount less than Minimum Amount Due
before due date, then differential amount would be debited. If
customer has paid an amount which is equal to or more than
Minimum Amount Due before due date, then no additional amount
will be debited from customer’s liability account. If you spend
₹5,000 and pay back exactly the Minimum Amount Due (subject to
a minimum payment of ₹100) every month, it will take you up to 6
years and 6 months to pay back the total amount.
We therefore suggest that whenever your cash flows allow, pay
back an amount substantially more than your Minimum Amount
Due. No merchant refund/cashback/credit due to transactions
converted to EMI / cancelled transactions / reversals / promotional
cashback will be considered as a payment towards the outstanding
of the card. In case card member makes an excess payment
compared to the outstanding of the card, there will be credit
balance in the card account. This will be adjusted against the
subsequent transactions on the card. However, no interest can be
claimed on this excess credit amount.
C) Credit and Cash Withdrawal / Advance Fees
• The Credit Limit: This is the limit assigned to the Cardholder.
The total outstanding, including all transactions, fees and
charges should not exceed this limit.
• Cash Limit: This is the Cash Advance Limit assigned to the
Cardholder. This limit is lower than the Credit Limit, and is a
subset of the overall Credit Limit.
A transaction fee is levied on cash withdrawn from ATMs. Also,
cash transactions always accrue interest from the transaction
date, unlike retail purchases, where interest accrual depends
on the payment of 100% balance payment by the Payment Due
Date
• Available Credit Limit: The Available Credit Limit at any time is
the difference between the assigned Credit Limit and the
outstanding balance on the Card at that point of time. The Add
- on Cardholder(s) will share this Credit Limit assigned to the
primary Cardholder
• Available Cash Limit: The Available Cash Limit at any time, is
the difference between the assigned Cash Limit & the
outstanding cash balance on the Card at that point of time.
• International Limit: International Limit is the limit assigned to
the customer for international usage. It is only applicable for
customers who have opted for international usage at the time
of Credit Card Application. This is as per the International Limit
mentioned on your Welcome Kit
• The Credit, Cash and International (if any) Limit will vary for each
Cardholder. It will be communicated to the
Cardholder in the Welcome Letter at the time of delivery of the
Card, and will also be disclosed in the monthly statement sent
to the Cardholder. The Available Credit Limit at the time of
generation of each monthly statement is provided as a part of
the said statement.
• Multi Cards-Limit sharing: Axis Bank at its sole discretion
reserves the right to provide a card type that is different from
the existing card type held by the Cardholder. The Credit
Limits and Cash Limits on any Credit Card at any point in
time are at the sole discretion of Axis Bank. Credit limit
across all your Axis Bank Credit Cards is shared.
Irrespective of different credit limits individually on your Axis
Bank Credit Card, the combined usage will be restricted to
the shared limit. Credit limits at individual card level or
shared limit at customer level are decided at sole discretion
of the bank basis extant internal guidelines. In situations
where the outstanding exceeds the credit limit assigned to
the credit card standard over limit charges will be applicable.
Axis Bank reserves the right to update the customer's
demographic and personal details as per the latest
application for his/her existing card(s) if any.
• RBI Guidelines on usage
As per RBI guidelines, all cards shall be enabled for use only
at contact based points of usage within India (ATMs and
POS i.e. point of sale devices). You can set or change your
usage preference and manage transaction limits on your
card anytime by enabling or disabling contactless,
international, online transactions via Axis Mobile app,
internet banking or simply contacting the customer care /
visiting the nearest branch. The contactless symbol on the
front face of your card signifies that the card is contactless
acceptance ready. If your card plastic does not support any
of the above mentioned transactions, you will not be able to
enable or disable preferences/limits, please call the
customer care or visit a branch for your request.
D) Credit - Free Period
The interest - free grace period could range from 20 to 50 days,
depending on the date of transaction. The interest – free credit
period is suspended if any balance from the previous month’s
bill is still outstanding.
Illustrative example for the calculation of the grace period:
For a statement of the period from 20th June to 20th July, the
Payment Due Date would be 10th August. Assuming that you
have paid your Total Amount Due of the previous month’s
statement by the Payment Due Date, the grace period would be:
1. For a purchase dated 24th June, the interest - free grace period
is from 24th June -10th August i.e. 47 days.
2. For a purchase dated 14th July, the interest - free grace period
is from 18th July to 10th August i.e. 23 days. Thus, the grace
period can vary depending upon the date of purchase. However,
if the Total Amount Due of the previous month is not paid by the
Payment Due Date, then the Free Credit Period will be lost and
there will not be any interest - free period. For cash advances,
interest is charged from the date of transaction until the date of
payment.
E) Billing and Statement
i] Billing Statement - Periodicity & mode of sending: The Bank
will send at your mailing address / e-mail address, as per
Bank's records, a statement / e-statement once a month for

date. An Illustration of such classification is as follows:
SMA 0 - If due date of a loan account is March 31, 2021,
and full dues are not received on this date, the account
shall be SMA 0 on day end of March 31, 2021.
SMA 1 - If it continues to remain overdue, then this
account shall get tagged as SMA-1 upon completion of
30 days of being continuously overdue i.e. April 30, 2021.

NPA – If the account continues to remain overdue
further, it shall get classified as NPA on June 29, 2021
As per RBI guidelines, classification of accounts as NPA is done

facility availed from the Bank and consequently the account is to
be classified as NPA, all other loan/credit card and accounts of the
Borrower/Card Holder, with the Bank, also shall be classified as

cards/facilities availed from the Bank, irrespective of regular
