You should be able to withdraw at an ATM once there. Don’t take out too much as it’s nearly impossible to convert rupees into any other currency due to a variety of weird Indian currently laws.
Being a digitally exoloited Indian,I think I might be able to help! Hmu for anything during your India trip. Happy to help :)
Credit card works in most big places (malls, hotels, franchise restaurants). Take a bit of cash and convert at the airport for other incidentals
You got to put a travel notice on your bank account.I forgot to do it once and my card was proactively blocked by the bank thinking it was a fraud transaction.
During my last trip to India I was with my father when he was withdrawing money from ATM. For some reason his card declined so I tried mine and to my surprise my Wells Fargo card worked. I would say you have nothing to worry about as there are currency exchange counters at the airport and if don't want to use that then then go for any ATM.
