    Please google and find out the amount of foreign currency one can carry outside India. Don't get confused by all these posts. My research revealed that when travelling outside India one can carry $5,000 worth of foreign currency (Rs.3.5 Lakh worth) and another $5,000 (worth Rs.3.5 Lakhs) in negotiable instruments i.e. bank draft etc. without declaring it. If it is more than $5000 + $5000, one has to declare the amount and sources at the customes.
    While entering India, one can bring in upto $10,000 worth of foreign currency without declaring it. If it is more than $10K, one must declare it. I think it is the latest update but double check every time you leave the country.
    The limits were set by the customs long ago. We can write to RBI to increase the limits due to inflation

    This is called tortorturing a common man. May be In Indian rupees amount looks big based on conversion. but the reality is in Dirhams it is only AED15,050.00 which is one month expenses for any common man stays with his family & school going childrens etc. Looto salo looto Aam admi ko bechara nanga karo.

    It’s not salary u get ,it’s regarding currency he was caught which was not permitted from India to carry outside in form of cash.He may hv crore of income it’s different ,but while questioning that person he should give satisfied answer not just like saying like D K Shivkumar that 7.5 crores found in his Delhi flat was his Family ‘s Agricultural income.
