Why it happened and how to avoid it

Why it happened

The yearly maintenance fee on your debit card fell due. The amount on your statement usually includes 18% GST, which is why it appears as figures like Rs 236 or Rs 354.

How to avoid it

Switch to a virtual or lifetime-free card variant if your bank offers one, or downgrade to a card type with a lower annual fee.
