Why are UAE-based Indians sending more money home, and how is the weak rupee influencing remittances?

With the Indian rupee plunging to around ₹24.5 per Dh1, many UAE residents have seized the opportunity to remit larger amounts—sometimes two to three times their usual transfers—as the favourable rate allows families in India to receive significantly more money. Expats say the higher returns are helping cover school fees, groceries, electricity bills, and other rising expenses back home, turning the exchange rate into unexpected relief despite inflation in India. What about you—do you think now is the right time to remit more, or should people be cautious despite the higher returns?
