Best way to send money to India

Hi,
I am an Non-resident Indian. I want to send money to India. I may want it to be used often. How can I do this hassle free? Please suggest.

A couple of banks have an ATM card that you can send to your relatives back home, allowing them to use the ATM to withdraw the money. Saves a fair bit and tends to be more secure.

Citibank and HSBC should have a reasonable NRI desk and should be pretty familiar with your situation.

Let me know if you need contact info ...

As #3 and #4 said, the NRI division of these banks will help you to send money through their accounts. I have personal experience with citi bank remittance. They have their branch in HK and all over India. So probably sending through them would be much easier for you. If you need further assistance in this regard you can post your query in the forum.

VERY weird ... both Preeti and Pradeep share the same IP address (in India of all the places) that belongs to a offshoring outfit in Pune.

Looks like a scam and spam schill from the Citibank marketing team in India....

Good catch! At least tell us what kind of offshoring business they're into? (I'll be disappointed if it's just a call centre)!

Let's see if they reappear now!
