So giftcards come under 5947 ?
https://www.desidime.com/discussions/sbi-cashback-card-benefits-revised-w-e-f-1st-may-2023?page=1#post_9182343
Now we need another cashback category thread 😅. Utilities is okay, it was anyway 1%. Railway and Education fee is also understandable.
But Who knows what all this Card, Gift, Novelty & Souvenir Shops mcc of 5947 means😅.

Banks typically indicate the MCC (merchant category code) of merchants who do not qualify for reward points or cashback. However, Normal credit card users may not be able to identify a merchant's MCC prior to making a payment. Therefore, it would be helpful if the MCC was displayed on the OTP page for customer convenience.
The RBI should consider the importance of customers knowing the MCC of a merchant before making a payment. We suggest that all banks display the MCC of the merchant on the OTP page for online transactions. For offline merchants, the MCC could be displayed on the POS machine, which would be visible to customers.
For the convenience of their customers, it is recommended that HDFC_Bank, the largest private sector bank in India, along with the top three credit card issuers, SBI Card, ICICIBank and Axisbank, step forward and implement this.
I can still use it for (unless some other better >5% cc offer) :
- online medicine purchases.Â
- Ajio
- Forex txns
- Lenskart
- OTT payments
- Amazon/ FK/ Myntra/ Zomato/ Swiggy/ Uber/ Ola etc etc etc..
Too long to list the useful Places to for this card.Also your major gripe seems to be the removal of "utilities", it was already giving just 1%, I wonder why in the first place were you using this card on utilities for just 1%.
At least SBI has learnt to implement guidelines now, maybe after RBI pressure, proper PDF and 30 days gap is given for this change.Â
Before SBI used to give general common T&C link, now link to a PDF like Axis does.Â
