I have never owned a credit card before. Salary is ₹25,000/month. Which is the safest entry-level credit card to start building my CIBIL score?

I had the same dilemma. The way I decided was: list down my top 3 monthly spend categories, calculate the rewards on each card, and pick whichever gives the highest cashback on MY pattern. Generic 'best card' lists are useless for personal decisions.
