1) Should I transfer money to my CIBC account in INR or CAD?
2) 1 CAD is approx 55.76 INR right now and 10,000 CAD would mean it'll cost me 5,57,590 INR but on the CIBC portal, it's showing 5,78,001 INR. Why?
3) Should I send 10,000 CAD or can I send 200 CAD more? I tried doing that but it stopped converting in INR and switched to USD. why's that happening?

1 transfer the exact amount in rupees that was mentioned in your GIC portal for your application
2 cibc charges service fees for processing gic which is included in your entire amount, hence the discrepency in their exchnage rate and normal exchange rate.
3 please send the exact amount as mentioned in INR and you will get gic within 2-3 wokring days

One more thing, under liberalised remittance scheme, should I say yes or no? I paid my tuition fee from my bank account. Should i mention that in the gic form?

CAD is around 57 rupees, when you BUY it in India.
Who offered you the exchange rate of 55.76 for forex?

When you do it n CAD, the total cost is $10150 CAD including program fees.
10150 * 57 = 5,78,000/- approx.
