Per 100 INR · Nepal Rastra Bank reference rates · information only, not financial advice.
When you change Indian rupees into rupees, the bank buys them from you — use the buying rate. When you buy Indian rupees with rupees, for travel, study or a visa fee, you pay the selling rate. Today the gap is Rs 0.15 per 100 INR (0.09%).
NRB's rate is the benchmark. Banks, money-transfer companies and remittance apps set their own rate, usually a little below NRB's buying rate, and some add a fee, so compare the total rupees your family receives. Use a licensed channel: informal hundi transfers are illegal in Nepal.
The Nepali rupee is pegged to the Indian rupee at about 1.6, so this rate barely moves. Rates are NRB's indicative reference rates from nrb.org.np; banks quote their own counter rates around them.
