Mumbai, Apr 2 (PTI) The Reserve Bank on Thursday allowed residents as well as non-residents to exchange Indian rupee notes at foreign exchange counters at departure halls in international airports beyond the immigration or customs desk.

Earlier, such foreign exchange counters were only allowed to buy Indian rupee from non-residents and sell foreign currency to them.

The Master Direction on Money Changing Activities is being amended accordingly, it added. PTI NKD TRB
