I just received my first HSBC credit card statement. Can someone explain the key sections — total amount due, minimum due, billing cycle, and grace period?

The 'minimum due' trap is real. Banks love it because they charge ~36-42% interest on the carried-forward amount. If you can't pay the full bill this month, pay at least 50% — anything below that and the interest eats the rewards of the next 6 months.
