Indicative estimate, not a guaranteed quote. Where our numbers come from
Not a single hero number. This is both legs, both spreads, the on-chain fee and the cash-out, quoted as a range from best to worst case.
Tax: India withholds 1% TDS at source and taxes any crypto gain at 30% (Section 115BBH / 194S). The recipient bears both.

all-in via Crypto (USDT)
This is the honest version of the crypto path: four legs, each with its real cost. Nothing here is a single flattering number. The all-in range for this corridor is -5.3%–-1.7%.
Fund a reputable exchange with your CAD and buy USDT. Because CAD is not the dollar, this leg first crosses CAD into USD, so its spread is baked into the range below.
+1.2% typical buy spread
Transfer the USDT to the recipient (or your own off-ramp account) over Tron (TRC-20). This is the only part that is genuinely near-free: the on-chain network fee is a flat cost, not a percentage.
≈ $2.02 network fee, flat
Sell the USDT for INR on WazirX. You receive about 101.16 INR per USDT after the local sell spread, a 7.4% premium over the mid-market rate. That premium is the edge banks never show you.
+0.2% typical sell spread
Withdraw the INR to a bank account or mobile wallet. A small withdrawal fee applies at the receiving end, and it is counted in the all-in range, not hidden.
+0.3% cash-out
Tax to expect: India withholds 1% TDS at source and taxes any crypto gain at 30% (Section 115BBH / 194S). The recipient bears both.
The off-ramp is where the stablecoin route earns or loses its edge: the real INR-per-USDT price at a display-safe venue, and how far it sits above or below the mid-market rate.
101.25INR / USDT
Above the mid-market rate, so the recipient nets more than the interbank price. That gap is the stablecoin route's real edge.

what banks charge on this corridor
The same corridor costs differently depending on the payout method. Wise-style estimates cover a bank-account payout only; cash pickup and mobile wallets are priced separately here.
Benchmark: The World Bank, Remittance Prices Worldwide, available at http://remittanceprices.worldbank.org, Q3 2025, across 13 priced providers. Licensed CC BY 4.0. It updates quarterly, so we treat it as a benchmark and a sanity check, never as a live quote.
