"The TT buying rate on the Rule 115 specified date (Rule 206 under the new Income-tax Act, 2025) — not the day you were paid, and never a Google rate — is the figure that goes into your return." — CA Juber Attar, TaxFetch e-CA Tax Expert

For taxpayers converting foreign income to report in their income-tax return, today's lower USD rate of 93.95 means that the same dollar receipt will translate into fewer rupees compared to yesterday's 94.60. Rule 115 (which specifies the use of SBI's TT buying rate on a particular date for currency conversion) is carried forward as Rule 206 under the Income-tax Act, 2025 from financial year 2026–27 onwards. Similar declines are visible across most major currencies, with EUR at 108.10 (from 108.70), GBP at 125.90 (from 126.90), and CHF at 114.30 (from 115.00), while JPY edged up to 59.12 per 100 units from 58.66.

What is SBI’s TT buying rate for USD today?

SBI's TT buying rate for USD on 3 September 2026 is 93.95 rupees per unit. This is the rate you should use for income-tax purposes when converting US dollar income received on this date.

Why does my ITR need the SBI TT buying rate and not a Google rate?

Rule 115 (and the corresponding Rule 26) of the Income-tax Rules, 1962 mandate the use of SBI's telegraphic transfer buying rate for converting foreign currency to rupees in your ITR, not market or Google rates; these provisions are carried forward as Rule 206 and Rule 207 under the Income-tax Act, 2025 from FY 2026–27. Using the prescribed SBI TT buying rate ensures compliance and avoids disputes with the tax department.

Which date’s rate should I actually use?

Rule 115 fixes a specified date per income type — and the same specified dates carry forward as Rule 206 of the Income-tax Rules, 2026 under the Income-tax Act, 2025 (income of FY 2026-27 onward). In short: FY 2025-26 and earlier returns cite Rule 115; FY 2026-27 onward cite Rule 206 — the rate itself is SBI’s TT buying rate either way. Per income type — for foreign salary and RSU/ESOP perquisites it is the last day of the month before the month the income fell due; for capital gains, the last day of the month before the month of transfer; Schedule FA closing balances take the 31 December rate. Our free SBI TTBR lookup tool works the date rule out for you, steps back to the last published card when SBI issued none, and shows the archive back to January 2020 with every original PDF.
