Best credit card for fuel under ₹1,50,000 annual fee

Please recommend a credit card with annual fee under ₹1,50,000 that excels at travel and flights. I prefer Visa/Mastercard over RuPay for wider acceptance.

Two things nobody tells you: (1) GST is charged on the annual fee, so a ₹1,000 fee becomes ₹1,180. (2) Reward points usually have an expiry of 2-3 years. Set a calendar reminder to redeem before they lapse.
I have had a hard time getting this card approved twice. The third time I applied after a 10% salary hike and got instant approval. Banks re-check eligibility every time. If you got rejected, improve your income proof / CIBIL and reapply after 6 months.
