Common sense is credit card is better.
Protection + much higher limit
Also do you might want to look at HDFC GVP
I need someone more knowledgeable than me to help me understand this. I am asking as I have an upcoming foreign holiday. I have got Niyo Global card but we know that is a debit card so I will need to fund my bank account with that much amount. I understand these are 0% markup cards.
Now I also have credit cards like idfc first select and hdfc regalia which I guess have 1.99% foreign markup. Obviously common sense says niyo is better.
But I am trying to understand if I use one of these credit cards and then factoring the extra I will pay in markup and reward points I will potentially earn on the spends, will I be able to break even? Because paying with credit card gives me an opportunity to pay little later than what I would in a debit card.
Would appreciate if someone can enlighten me.
