monetary exchange under the RDA. The money to be remitted is sent to the
bank account of the receiver, and no cash remittance is allowed under RDA.
Also, there is no limit over the amount of money transferred to an individual’s
account. However, there is an upper limit of Rs. 150000 (now Rs. 500000) on
any trade-related exchange.

Money Transfer Service Scheme (MTSS):

MTSS is quite similar to RDA, except for the limitation that they can only be
used to remit money to close relatives for Indians, and for transference of funds
to foreign tourists from their families/friends. Any other kind of remittance, like
donations, trade remittances and charity funds are not allowed via MTSS.

This arrangement works quite similar to the RDA’s arrangement. The foreign
money transfer companies are called Overseas Principal, and the Indian Agents
are AD-I compliant banks who are responsible for distribution of the fund sent
in by the Overseas Principal at the current currency exchange rates. These
Indian Agents can also appoint sub-agents, which can be local businesses,
commercial establishments etc. Basically any business which gets a permission
from the banks can become a sub-agent.

There is also a limit over the exchange done via MTSS. Currently (as per RBI
website’s FAQ[1]) it is USD 2500, and a maximum of 30 remittances can be done

by an individual in one year.

There is however, allowance for cash remittance, unlike RDA, which has no
provision for cash remittance. The current limit for this is Rs. 50000, and money
exceeding this can be paid via cheque, demand draft, etc. For a foreign tourist,
an exception can be made, where he can be allowed more than Rs. 50000 in cash
via MTSS.

So well, that’s it. I hope it was helpful to you.

Now I’m off to remove my proclamation over the title of economist.
