Banks seek one more month to comply with international card spend rule

By Economic Times - 6 months ago
Indian lenders are seeking a one-month extension from the government to comply with the Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS) for international credit card spends. The scheme allows Indian residents to remit up to $250,000 abroad in a financial year for permissible purposes such as education, travel, and investment. Last year, the government announced that forex transactions through credit cards would be covered under the scheme and charged 20% tax collected at source (TCS) beyond the threshold of ₹7 lakh per fiscal.
