I use money2india all the time since they have no fees. Only problem is that the Exchange rates you get are always lower than what they quote you at the beginning of the transaction. It's still better than the $20 you get charged on $1000 transaction but for higher amounts like $2500 it may even out. I definitely don't like money2india service due to fluctuations in Exchange rate but it's still best among the lot.

Yes, Money2India shows different exchange rate on their website and they use much lower than that and say that service is free. I do not consider this as best.

wire transfers work fine. but only for larger amounts say above 5k usd, they take some time but are secure and charges r ok.

Dollar value is not same through out a business day and they seems to considers the lowest value on any given day, If you are lucky, you may get MAX of the displayed forex. M2I is better for small amounts, Wire is better for large amount.
