If you hold this card: Vistara has ceased operations, so the card is closed to new applicants and its Club Vistara Points were migrated 1:1 to Air India Maharaja Points — redeem them through Air India. Milestone flight benefits ended for cards renewed after 1 April 2025.
SBI’s Club Vistara co-brand ended after Vistara merged into Air India (last flights November 2024) and Club Vistara was folded into Air India’s Maharaja Club. CV Points were converted to Maharaja Points; there is no direct successor, so SBI steers travel-reward seekers to the SBI Miles family.

The bottom line
Discontinued and closed to new applicants after Vistara folded into Air India, so this page is history rather than a recommendation. It was a reasonable entry travel co-brand while Vistara flew, but the airline is gone and Club Vistara Points now live on as Air India Maharaja Points. For SBI travel rewards today, look at the Miles family.
