ICICI Bank Emeralde Private Metal Credit Card

ICICI's top card, by invitation through a relationship manager only. Unlimited lounge access and golf, the lowest forex markup in the portfolio, and no late payment fee at all — but the reward rate is stated per ₹200, not per ₹100, and capped hard on everyday categories.
