I do not recieve any funds from abroad. I used DBS to send money abroad. On a few occassions in the last 2 years. Never bothered to check misc charges which anyway was almost next to nothing. This is because of my experience of dealing in forex for over a decade.Are the fees competitive with IOB and SBI?

I had earlier worked in SBI Overseas Branch, Visakhapatnam, then at Hyderabad International Airport branch and later at Handloom House branch - all dealing with remittances, interbank international transfers, wire transfers n correspondent relations with over 175 banks globally.
So, when I get better rate, I don't care about rates quoted by other banks or about misc charges. What matters most is that the transfer must be lightening fast n direct without involving other intermediate banks (paying bank, settlement bank, reimbursing bank, banker in case of need, ....) which all add up to the final cost.

I/we was/were in the very first batch of customers - the earliest - to open DigiBank SB accounts with DBS.Howz your experience with dbs bank for remaining things Sir?
Those inward remittance transactions were by friends and family or business transactions?Later from a discussion thread on this forum I found that IOB is offering much better rates and required only 1000 INR maintenance.
For comparison I pay almost 80% less fees to IOB compared to Axis.
In the initial years of their India operations they used to offer flat 7% rate of interest on savings account balance and zero fee cash withdrawals from any atm in the country. Had moved all my free balance to digibank during that phase.I/we was/were in the very first batch of customers - the earliest - to open DigiBank SB accounts with DBS.
Top class App. Perfect in all respects. NEVER ever failed me even once. Never I had to call their Support Team. Not for nothing, DBS is THE BEST BANK for so many years running.
After 7 yrs, I had to close it - as part of pruning exercise as I was having too many accounts. My wife n kids still have theirs.
DBS App's features, stability, usability, availability... is what every bank should aim for. Extremely happy.
