According to HDFC, Platinum DC gives rewards for "utility" and most have been using it for paying off other bank CC bills to get 1% CB.
Recently, I paid through this card for a JIO ₹209 recharge through PayTM to avail VISADEBIT ₹30CB offer I was getting, and today saw that 2.09 points were credited as RP. Merchant ID : "ONE97 COMMUNICATIONS L"
So, it detects PayTM recharge payments as utility and gives rewards.
Now, question arises whether other payments through PayTM such as electricity/gas cylinder etc are too (should be) counted for RP? Anyone has an experience or got such RP?

tried on cred for more than 50k payments
I guess it'd work on >25k bills (office electricity bills etc) which are not allowed by amazon and get 1% flat.
Is there any upper limit for the value of the bill payment?
Yes. Only bill payments of up to the value of Rs. 25,000 are permitted on Amazon (i.e, any order of Rs. 25,000 or above will not be processed). This limit of Rs. 25,000 is applicable across our website to all bill payment related categories, including electricity, gas, piped gas, water, landline, broadband and municipal tax bill payments.
Update for Platinum DC: Recently also got 0.5% for normal FK order (by mistake paid through DC). Cancelled the order and reordered using CC. Got refunded, but RP yet to be reversed, 5 days passed.
Normal FK order has category of "shopping", maybe they are counting it as "departmental stores", which is eligible for 1RP per 200 spent, 0.5%...
You are lucky .
