The forex counters in arrivals (Thomas Cook and Centrum) will exchange your 50$ into INR without issues: http://www.csia.in/atcsia/forex.aspx
Note that for such a little amount there will be a fee. And the exchange rate will be poor on top (Thomas Cook buys US$ at 60 although the rate is 63 for example).
