The need to reintroduce stringent capital controls comes as Russian authorities grapple with a sharply weakening rouble, which tumbled past 100 to the dollar on Monday.
One source at an exporting firm said the discussions concerned the forced conversion of up to 90% of exporters' revenues.
Exporters who fail to return revenues to Russia could lose government support measures, too.
One Russian banking source told Reuters that about $39 billion is stuck in Indian banks, which oil companies are unable to return to Russia.
The high-level source said a minimal level of revenues was held in rupees, with even less in roubles.
