    1)Wire Transfer to your bank in NZ
    2)Draft payable in NZ ,ask local bank in India they will be more than happy to help you as they will make good money on this.
    Remember You can always negotiate Currency Conversion rates at any bank even first they will say its fixed

    we can't send money from India using Western Union. I think wire transfer is the best way OR you can open an NRI account as well..

    Wire transfer is the best way. I transferred $65K in total to USA, broken in 3 installments.

    You will have to do it through SWIFT. Written FERA/FEMA declaration to RBI is essential. Your bank should arrange
    that for you. you will just have to sign a couple of forms.

    Walk to the bank. They will give you the best solution. As far as I know,you can use WIRE TRANSFER for 3-4 parts of it. Thats the best easiest way..

    Have you ever tried transferring large amount of money from one country
    to another, if not, do refrain from posting such weird solutions.
