TCS (Tax Collected at Source)
5% TCS applies on cumulative remittances exceeding ₹7,00,000 (approx. $8,400) in a financial year under the LRS. Since your transfer of $7,500 is below this threshold, TCS currently does not apply. However, if you or your recipient have received prior remittances this year, confirm total inflows to stay compliant.
TCS not triggered at $7,500 alone
IFSC Code Requirement
An 11-character IFSC code is mandatory for all bank transfers to India. An incorrect or missing IFSC can delay or cancel your transfer. Double-check this code with your recipient before initiating.
NRO Account Support
Root currently supports transfers to NRO and regular savings or current accounts in India. NRE account transfers are not yet supported but will be available soon.
PAN Card
Indian banks may require the recipient's PAN for transactions over ₹50,000 per day or cumulative large inflows. Having PAN on record helps avoid processing delays.

Tips for This Transfer
Time your transfer when the USD to INR rate is strong—check the trend over a few days to get ₹CHECK_LIVE or better.
Since $7,500 is close to the ₹7,00,000 (~$8,400) TCS threshold, coordinate with family to track total annual remittances and plan larger future transfers accordingly.
Use Root’s rate alert feature to lock in a favorable rate before sending $7,500 to maximize INR received.
Always confirm the recipient’s IFSC code directly with their bank—many failed transfers stem from incorrect branch codes.
