What moves the CHF/INR rate
The Swiss Franc is mainly influenced by Swiss National Bank policy and the franc's reputation as a safe-haven currency. The Indian Rupee is mainly influenced by Reserve Bank of India policy and intervention, India's oil import bill and foreign investment flows. When these forces push the two currencies in different directions, the CHF/INR rate moves; when they move together, the rate tends to stay steadier.
How this rate is calculated
Rates are fetched from Frankfurter, which publishes the European Central Bank's daily reference rates (updated once per working day), and from ExchangeRate-API for currencies the ECB does not cover. All rates are stored against the euro, so the CHF/INR figure is a cross rate: the euro value of INR divided by the euro value of CHF. These are indicative mid-market reference rates and may differ from the rates offered by banks, card issuers and payment providers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert CHF to INR?
Enter an amount in Swiss Franc and the converter multiplies it by the latest daily CHF/INR reference rate to show the value in Indian Rupee. To go the other way, INR to CHF, divide by the same rate or use the swap button.
Where does the CHF to INR rate come from?
Rates come from Frankfurter, which republishes daily European Central Bank reference rates, with ExchangeRate-API filling in currencies the ECB does not publish. They are cached in your browser for up to an hour.
Is this the CHF to INR rate my bank will give me?
No. These are mid-market, indicative rates. Banks, card providers and transfer services usually add a margin or fee, so the Indian Rupee you actually receive is typically a little lower.
