Send NowFrequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to send money from Atlanta to Bhubaneswar?
Transfers typically take 1–4 business days to reflect in Bhubaneswar bank accounts, depending on the Indian banking system’s processing time.
Is TCS applicable when I send money from Atlanta to Bhubaneswar?
Yes, if your family in India receives cumulative remittances exceeding ₹7,00,000 in a financial year, 5% TCS is applied by the bank on the excess amount. This is regulated under Indian tax law, not Root’s policy.
What bank details do I need to send money from Atlanta to a relative in Bhubaneswar?
You need the recipient’s full name, bank name, branch address, 11-digit IFSC code, account number, and whether it’s an NRO or savings account.
Can I use Root to send money to an NRE account in Bhubaneswar?
Currently, Root supports NRO and regular savings accounts in India. NRE account transfers are not yet supported, but this feature is coming soon.
Why is the exchange rate better with Root than banks in Atlanta?
Root uses the real interbank exchange rate with no markup, while traditional banks and money services in Atlanta often add hidden margins, making transfers less cost-effective.
