What moves the GBP/INR rate
The British Pound is mainly influenced by Bank of England rate decisions, UK inflation and the UK's large services and financial sector. 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 GBP/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 GBP/INR figure is a cross rate: the euro value of INR divided by the euro value of GBP. 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 GBP to INR?
Enter an amount in British Pound and the converter multiplies it by the latest daily GBP/INR reference rate to show the value in Indian Rupee. To go the other way, INR to GBP, divide by the same rate or use the swap button.
Where does the GBP 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 GBP 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.
