What will I actually receive?

Use your provider quote and the fees you know to estimate how much arrives.

Budget mode uses the source budget; target mode uses the desired receipt. The target never replaces the main converter amount.

Both fees are deducted from the source budget before conversion. The percentage applies to the whole source budget.

Enter your provider’s rate to calculate.

Enter your provider quote. The reference rate is not an offer. Unentered intermediary or recipient charges are excluded.

Source budget and fixed fee: up to 1,000,000,000 each. No fees are assumed beyond those entered.

Practical questions

What are a lakh and a crore?

A lakh is 100,000 and a crore is 10,000,000. For example, 1 lakh rupees means 100,000 INR; enter the numeric amount in the converter.

Is withdrawal always the same as demonetisation?

No. The RBI’s ₹2,000 withdrawal notice retains legal-tender status, unlike the specified older ₹500 and ₹1,000 notes affected in 2016.
