Transaction Time

When you send money from India to Singapore, it will reach the recipient within the day. DBS Bank offers this facility for the transfer of funds to numerous other countries if you initiate the transfers before the deadline. The cut-off time varies from one country to another.

To transfer money from India to Singapore, you need to do so before 11:30 AM (IST). In case you do not manage to initiate the transfer before the cut off time for that day, it will be delivered on the next working day.

If you have to transfer money from India to Singapore in some other currency, you can do so too. It will merely take a bit longer. The funds will be transferred in 1-3 working days after you initiate a transfer in a non-local currency before the cut-off time.
