Can I still apply for the Club Vistara SBI Card PRIME?

No — Vistara's operations wound down when it merged into Air India, with its last flights in November 2024, and this co-brand card was discontinued as a result. It remains on this site purely for reference.

What happened to my Club Vistara Points?

Following the Vistara–Air India merger, all Club Vistara Points were carried over into Air India's Maharaja Points programme, where they can now be redeemed. In real terms, the card's strongest earn category worked out to about 1% — a figure based on what the points were actually worth on redemption, not the raw points-per-₹100 rate advertised.

Did it charge a renewal fee?

The card charged ₹2,999 to join, but nothing was due on renewal from the second year onward.

Discontinued — Vistara ceased operations after merging into Air India (last flights November 2024), so this premium co-brand is closed to new applicants and existing holders were migrated to Air India. While live it earned 4 Club Vistara Points per ₹200 on all retail spends including fuel, carried a ₹2,999 joining fee with no renewal fee from the second year, and offered a complimentary Premium Economy air-ticket voucher at annual-spend milestones. Travel benefits included 8 domestic lounge visits a year, a 2-year Priority Pass with 4 international visits, and a suite of travel insurance covers. Club Vistara Points have since been migrated to Air India's Maharaja Points programme.

The concern The card is discontinued — Vistara ceased operations after merging into Air India, it is closed to new applicants, and CV Points were converted to Air India Maharaja Points.

The bottom line

This card exists here as a record, not a recommendation — it shut down and stopped taking new applicants once Vistara was absorbed into Air India. In its day it was a solid mid-premium travel co-brand, but the airline behind it no longer operates and its points have already been converted into Air India Maharaja Points. Readers looking for SBI-issued travel rewards today should instead look toward the Miles family of cards.
