> Just go to the money exchange counters and enquire about this. Airport information desk should help you as well.

> You can get a local prepaid phone number sim at the airport.

Worth noting, do all this before you leave the airport. Assuming you land in Delhi, once you leave the airport there's no way to get back in unless you have flight information to show

This turned into a pretty big problem for me on my first trip to India once I exited the airport with no way to make phone calls, no data, no sense of where anything was, and no rupees (I hadn't exchanged cash yet)

Yeah no, it seems likethe best idea it's to not go to India at all and avoid all that trouble.

Riiight.. there’s a problem with money exchange at the airport so the solution is to completely write off an entire subcontinent that’s the home of one of the oldest, richest human cultures.

If it’s a massive burden to do something as simple as pay for goods and services then why not? There is a whole world out there that doesn’t suffer from this problem.

Currency notes and credit/debit cards work well.

[mattigames]

Totally, Im sure thats the one and only problem you will face there.
