Refer to this official information from Indian customs: http://www.cbec.gov.in/trvler-guide_ason22may2013.pdf

Export of Indian Currency is strictly prohibited. However Indian residents when they go abroad are allowed to take with them Indian currency not exceeding Rs. 7,500.

It is not legal to carry Indian currency notes out of India. Once you have a bank account in Thailand you can do a wire transfer from your Indian bank account.

You can also buy Thai currency from India and take it with you but the value should not exceed USD10000.

Another way to do this would be to just take your visa or mastercard debit card with you and draw the money in Thailand using your Indian card but this will carry some extra fees and the exchange rate you get wont be very good either.
