FAQ — Kotak Mahindra Bank forex rates
What is the TT buying rate at Kotak Mahindra Bank?
The TT (telegraphic transfer) buying rate is what Kotak Mahindra Bank pays you per unit of foreign currency when it converts an inward remittance into rupees. Today it is ₹95.08 per USD (sheet dated 9 Oct 2026). It sits below the mid-market rate; the gap is the bank's margin on receiving money, which never appears as a fee line on your statement.
What is the TT selling rate at Kotak Mahindra Bank?
The TT selling rate is what Kotak Mahindra Bank charges per unit of foreign currency when you send money abroad by SWIFT wire. Today it is ₹98.34 per USD (sheet dated 9 Oct 2026). It sits above the mid-market rate; that margin is the biggest single cost of most bank remittances, ahead of commission, SWIFT charges and GST.
Why is Kotak Mahindra Bank's rate different from the Google rate?
Google shows the mid-market (interbank) rate, which no retail customer gets. Kotak Mahindra Bank publishes a card rate with a margin on each side — typically 1–2% at Indian banks. The "vs mid-market" table on this page computes today's margin live so you can see exactly how much the rate costs you on top of the visible fees.
How often does Kotak Mahindra Bank update its forex rates?
Kotak Mahindra Bank publishes a fresh card rate every forex working day, usually in the morning, and can revise it during the day when the market moves. RemitFee records the published rate on each refresh (sheet dated 9 Oct 2026) and keeps the history behind the trend charts; the rate applied to your transfer is the one in force at the moment of debit.
Are these the same rates Kotak Mahindra Bank uses for forex cards and cash?
No. TT rates apply to wire remittances (SWIFT / telegraphic transfer). Forex card loads, currency notes and traveller's cheques are quoted in separate columns of the same sheet and are usually worse for the customer. RemitFee shows the TT columns only, because they are what an outward or inward remittance is converted at.
Does GST apply to Kotak Mahindra Bank's exchange rate?
GST is not charged on the rate itself. Instead, 18% GST is levied on a notional currency-conversion value fixed by slab under CGST Rule 32(2)(b) — a few hundred rupees on a typical transfer — and it appears as a separate line on the Kotak Mahindra Bank charges page. The rate you see here is the gross conversion rate before that GST line.
Where do these Kotak Mahindra Bank rates come from?
From Kotak Mahindra Bank's own published sheet — Kotak Mahindra Bank Forex Rates page (https://www.kotak.bank.in/en/rates/forex-rates.html), read on every refresh. The bank quotes JPY per 100 units on its sheet; RemitFee shows every rate per 1 unit. If a currency is missing on a given day, the previous day's value is kept rather than zeroed.
