Canadian Currency exchange in Delhi airport

Hello,

Can anyone tell me if they accept canadian cash at the airport currency exchange counter? I have noticed in some countries they only accept canadian travellers cheques and in some they only accept US currency.
Thanks

They should accept them.

I have seen small exchange shops in Punjab changing just about any currency without problem.

Atm

Most large banks accept ATM cards from Canada and credit cards as well, I found that I get the best rates from the ATM's, no need to carry Canadian Cash.

Yes, you can change Canadian Currency at Delhi aiport, but the rate you would get outside the aiport is somewhat higher than what they would give you at the airport

Quite true. The best rate is through your Canadian bank ATM card. Found that I got Rs 1.25-Rs 1.35 more per dollar through my bank card.
