Doesn't earn cashback

Everyday staples like white rice, poha, suji, potatoes, cooking oil, full-cream milk and regular paneer don't earn cashback but are fine to buy. Sugar, jaggery, honey, ghee, butter, red meat, biscuits, white bread, sweets, chikki, chips, namkeen, soft drinks, packaged juices and instant noodles don't earn cashback either.

Watch out for

• Toned milk earns cashback; full-cream milk doesn't.
• Low-fat paneer earns cashback; regular paneer doesn't.
• "Brown" or "multigrain" bread earns only if whole-wheat atta is the first ingredient.
• Packaged snacks marketed as healthy (baked chips, protein bars, granola) don't earn cashback unless listed above.
