Live USD, AED, EUR and GBP to INR rates with a 30-day trend
Updated October 2026 · Live mid-market exchange rates, refreshed daily
The Currency Converter shows today's exchange rates with the Indian rupee first. Type an amount, choose two currencies from more than 160, and see the result both ways — for example how many rupees a hundred US dollars buy, or how many UAE dirhams you get for ₹50,000. Below the converter, a grid lists today's rupee rate for the currencies Indians convert most: the US dollar, UAE dirham, euro, British pound, Saudi riyal, Singapore dollar, Kuwaiti dinar and others. A 30-day chart shows whether the rupee has been strengthening or weakening against the currency you picked, and when you come back on another day, the converter tells you how much the rate has moved since your last visit. Rates are mid-market rates that update once a day from a free public source; the page also explains why the rate a bank, card or money-transfer app offers you is lower.
Today's rates come from ExchangeRate-API's open-access feed, which publishes mid-market rates for more than 160 currencies against the US dollar once a day; if it cannot be reached, the converter falls back to an independent open dataset served through jsDelivr. A conversion between any two currencies is calculated through the dollar: the rate from A to B is (B per dollar) ÷ (A per dollar). The 30-day chart uses the European Central Bank's daily euro reference rates, published by the ECB on working days around 16:00 Central European Time, which cover about 30 major currencies including the rupee. The UAE dirham, Saudi riyal, Qatari riyal, Omani rial and Bahraini dinar are fixed to the US dollar, so their rupee chart is the dollar–rupee series divided by the official peg; currencies the ECB does not publish and that are not pegged, such as the Kuwaiti dinar, get today's rate but no chart. "Since your last visit" compares today's rate with the rate this browser saw on your previous visit; that number is stored only in your browser's local storage and never sent anywhere.
| Currency | Peg (per 1 US dollar) | What it means for the rupee rate |
|---|---|---|
| UAE dirham (AED) | 3.6725 | AED→INR moves in step with USD→INR |
| Saudi riyal (SAR) | 3.75 | SAR→INR moves in step with USD→INR |
| Qatari riyal (QAR) | 3.64 | QAR→INR moves in step with USD→INR |
| Omani rial (OMR) | 0.3845 | One rial is worth about 2.6 dollars |
| Bahraini dinar (BHD) | 0.376 | One dinar is worth about 2.66 dollars |
| Kuwaiti dinar (KWD) | Basket peg (not fixed to USD alone) | Moves slightly differently from the dollar |
Because of these pegs, if the rupee weakens against the dollar it weakens by the same percentage against the dirham, riyal and the other pegged currencies — which is why remittances from the Gulf are worth more in rupees when the dollar is strong.
Every currency trades with two prices: what dealers pay to buy it and what they charge to sell it. The mid-market rate is the midpoint between the two, and it is the rate this converter and news sites show. Nobody buying a small amount pays exactly that rate. Banks, card networks, airport counters and money-transfer apps quote a worse rate and keep the difference as their margin, sometimes on top of a fixed fee.
That makes the mid-market rate useful as a yardstick. Before you send money or pay a foreign invoice, convert the amount here, then compare it with the rupees (or dollars) the provider says will arrive. The difference is what the service really costs you, whatever its "zero fee" advertising says.
The chart shows how many rupees one unit of the other currency buys on each day. When the line goes up, each dollar (or euro, or dirham) buys more rupees — the rupee has weakened. When it goes down, the rupee has strengthened. A weaker rupee is good news for anyone receiving money from abroad or paid in foreign currency, and bad news for imports, foreign travel and paying overseas fees. The low, high and percentage change above the chart summarise the month, and the dates under it show the exact period covered.
Indian residents can send up to US$250,000 abroad each financial year under the Reserve Bank of India's Liberalised Remittance Scheme, for purposes such as education, travel, gifts and investment. Large remittances can attract tax collected at source, so check the current rules with your bank before a big transfer.
If you receive money regularly — a salary from the Gulf, payments from foreign clients, support from family abroad — timing matters less than the provider's margin. A one-percent difference in the quoted rate on a ₹1,00,000 transfer is ₹1,000, every time. Compare two or three providers against the mid-market rate shown here; the "since your last visit" line tells you at a glance whether the rate has moved since you last checked.
India's official reference rates for the rupee are published by Financial Benchmarks India (FBIL), and the European Central Bank publishes the euro reference rates used for the chart. Commercial rates change throughout the trading day, while this converter refreshes once a day, so treat the figure as an accurate guide rather than a live dealing price. For budgeting a foreign trip or a purchase in another currency, our Percentage Calculator helps work out what a card markup adds, and the Inflation Calculator shows how the rupee's buying power changes at home.
Open the converter: it loads today's mid-market USD to INR rate and shows when it was last updated. Rates refresh once a day. The mid-market rate is the midpoint between buying and selling prices; banks, card networks and money-transfer services quote slightly worse rates because they add a margin.
Tap "1 AED" in the Today's rupee rates grid, or choose AED as the "from" currency. The UAE dirham is pegged to the US dollar at 3.6725 dirhams per dollar, so the AED to INR rate moves almost exactly in step with USD to INR.
Converters show the mid-market rate. When you send money or use a card abroad, the provider buys at a lower rate and sells at a higher one, and may also charge a fee. Compare the rate you are offered with the mid-market rate here to see how much the margin costs you.
No — the opposite. The chart shows how many rupees one unit of the other currency buys. If the line rises, each dollar buys more rupees, which means the rupee has weakened. That is good for people receiving money from abroad and bad for imports and foreign travel.
