Charges for missing a payment of 1005 INR on my CC?

I had a bill of 3 lakh which I paid in parts via CRED yesterday (which was also due date). I missed a payment of 1000 (transaction failed but I retried and counted it as 2 transactions sad). Today, I was just verifying my account and realised the blunder. I paid the remaining amount instantly.

The transactions were 1 lakh each and I have an interest rate of 28% pa. 1st transaction was done on 25th of Jan and last was done on 16th of Feb.

What all penalties I am looking at?

I am guessing the bank will charge me interest on full amount capping to due amount of 1005.

Nothing…. Generally there’s 3-4 days grace period after due date!

Is this written anywhere in MITC? Similar thing happened with my brother for Axis bank (cash back adjustment) and he realised it after 10 days of next bill generation. He had to pay 350 for 1000 INR due on a total bill of 5000.

There an a notification released by RBI and most banks follow this. Infact I have delayed HDFC Credit card payment by 1-2days by mistake and there was no charges/ and it was not reported as late payment. If charges happen for more delay than 3days or more, you can try to request Bank to reverse the charges as one time exception

I remember, it was for fee and was during the COVID/lockdown. Any link to the notification?
Fee is different, Interest is different.

Yes late payment fee will be waived sometimes if they consider our request, but interest on balance carried forward usually won’t be waived i think

3. However, banks shall report a credit card account as ‘past due’ to
credit information companies (CICs) or levy penal charges, viz. late
payment charges, etc., if any, only when a credit card account remains
‘past due’ for more than three days. The number of ‘days past due’ and
late payment charges shall, however, be computed from the payment due
date mentioned in the credit card statement.

Nothing to worry bro. If they charge you such charge or fees then call customer care and politely tell them that I want to close my credit card as there are many issues. Then they will ask reason tell them the reason is charges of card that they put . They will wave off all the charges. They didn't want to let go there heavy users like you. Nothing to panic .

Everything can be waived off you just have some skill to convince customer care.

Some banks like HDFC have an internal grace period of about 3-4 days after due date. I can confirm that (twice faced this due to settlement issues/failed payment).

Now, not all banks are that ethical or have such internal extended grace period... which card did you miss for?
