I am working in the UK since 2020. I want to send money from my account in the UK to my parents in India. Is there a maximum limit on how much I can send? Do I get charged any taxis UK on the money I send to India? Thank you.

There are no Income Tax implications on the giving or receipt of cash gifts, but you may wish to speak to Inheritance Tax regarding any Inheritance Tax implications.
