Information for Evaluating Economical Online Remittance of Money from USA,
UK and Europe for Small Purchases, Books, Relatives, Etc.


Remit2India facility of the Times of India Group facilitates needs of
brothers and sisters overseas to remit money economically to Bharat. This
is particularly useful for sending small amounts to relatives and friends,
for purchase of books and other items, etc. Existing channels have
proportionately high bank charges associated for remitting relatively
small amounts.

This facility is economical with costs for remittance being as low as
US$3 for transactions up to US$100. Details can be seen at Remit2India
web site http:\\www.remit2india.com .

I have a special arrangement with Remit2India and are suggesting its use
to our overseas brothers for purchase of low priced items of Bharat.s
cultural heritage.

It will be highly appreciated if you could evaluate the use of this
facility for your convenience and would highly appreciate quoting my
