Upon arrival
Most tourists arrive in India by plane or by train. Upon arrival, you will be asked to declare the equipment (PCs and laptops).
If you travel by train, do not leave your bags unattended. After the terrorist attack in Mumbai, train stations and trains have introduced increased security measures: if you leave your luggage unattended for at least a minute, the guards can then ask you to stand next to the bags throughout the trip.
Cash is better to import into India at EUR or dollars (the most common currency) and exchange in banks or official exchange offices. Money can also be exchanged at the airport, but there the exchange rate will be unprofitable.
You can take a bank card with you: such payment systems as Visa and Master Card are accepted in almost all large Indian cities. When you go to the countryside, always take cash with you.
Taxi
In India it is possible to travel on rickshaws (a buggy that the driver pulls on a bicycle), by taxi or by public transport (buses, trains). Taxis are public and private, and their parking lots are usually in different places. Taxi drivers rarely use the counter and charge their price: in this case, you can bargain.
There are prepaid offices at airports and railway stations, where the cost of traveling on popular tourist routes is posted, and where you can book a taxi. You will be given a check about payment, which you then need to give to the driver. There is also a tourist taxi: it can be called directly to the hotel; the prices for travel in it are fixed, and there is no point in bargaining.
There are shared-cabs (in English "shared") in the mountains and at large distances, which can hold up to 13 people and go on as they fill. When traveling in such a taxi, make sure that the driver tightly tied all your luggage to the roof.
When traveling in India by a large company and over considerable distances, it will be more beneficial for you to book a taxi. Prepare to pay in advance (the minimum mileage in India is about 300 km: if you drove a taxi less, you still have to pay the minimum amount for 300 km), as well as the presence of a taxi in the air conditioner. Record the meter readings at the beginning of the trip. During the trip, you are obligated to give the driver money only for gasoline, but it's a good idea to treat a taxi driver with lunch.
Stole, stole!
Outside the hotel, store money and documents in a small bag under your clothes or around your neck. At the hotel, use the safe or close things in a suitcase. Take a padlock from the house: you'll close the doors in Indian hotels, and lock your bag under the bench in the train (so do the locals).
If you have stolen a passport, contact one of the branches of the Russian consulate in India. If you lose or steal a ticket, you can always restore it by writing an application for the loss of the ticket and presenting your passport at the airline's office
