"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
Revised card: SBI reissued its rate card later on 9 September 2026; the figures below reflect the latest card of the day.
Today's upward movement in the rupee-dollar rate means that foreign income converted on 9 September 2026 will yield more rupees per dollar than it would have on the previous card date. For taxpayers reporting foreign earnings in their income-tax return, Rule 115 (carried forward as Rule 206 under the Income-tax Act, 2025 from FY 2026-27) prescribes the use of the SBI TT buying rate on the specified date of receipt or accrual. A higher TT buying rate translates directly into a higher taxable income figure when foreign currency receipts are converted for ITR purposes.

What is SBI’s TT buying rate for USD today?
The State Bank of India's TT buying rate for the US dollar on 9 September 2026 is 94.70 rupees per unit. This is the rate applicable for income-tax conversion purposes on this date.
Why does my ITR need the SBI TT buying rate and not a Google rate?
Rule 115 and Rule 26 of the Income-tax Rules (carried forward as Rule 206 and Rule 207 under the Income-tax Act, 2025 regime from FY 2026-27) specifically mandate the use of the State Bank of India's telegraphic transfer buying rate for converting foreign currency receipts, not commercial search-engine rates or interbank midpoints. Using any rate other than SBI's published TT buying rate can lead to incorrect disclosure in your income-tax return.
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.
