As NRI in USA, I have linked my Indian NRO bank account, completed KYC showing India address too.

 

I see no option to send money in INR to folks in India.

 

I see USD as primary option. Why?

 

Please help.

INR is not a paypal supported currency unfortunately.

Also you can't send friends/family payments in India.

Lastly you can't send any payments from an Indian buyer to a seller in India as you can't use paypal in India domestically.

Sellers in India can receive USD from international buyers.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.
