After seeing my balance during last 3 months, would you suggest me to apply if the pound rate does not cross my lowest total balance (226690. I mentioned 226619 but it is 226690 in real as I did not count 75 rs. more).

I am also wondering how do they calculate minimum balance? Do they do in the same way how I did? Like calculating balance for each and every day and then seeing if the minimum balance is still above GBP 2800 at the rate of Pound on the application day?

The minimum balance after 30th April is 240542.90 on 18/05/09. The option you now have is to wait for a few days and see if the rate eases of a bit. At the same time put some money into your account now. If the rate does not come down in next few days you will have to wait till 29th July (3 months ...
