Dubai, Riyadh, Doha, Muscat, Manama: priced off the dollar
Five Gulf currencies are fixed to the US dollar by their central banks, and the Hong Kong dollar trades in a narrow band against it. So their rupee price follows the dollar's, up and down.

Forex rate questions
What people ask about today's rates, answered with today's numbers.
What are the forex rates today?
At 12:35 AM IST on 11 Oct 2026, Matrix Forex sells US dollars at ₹97.69, euros at ₹109.62, pounds at ₹129.40 and UAE dirhams at ₹27.24 in cash. The "Every currency, every place" section above lists all 37 currencies, with the forex card, transfer and buy-back rates.
What is the Indian currency rate today?
The Indian currency rate today, against the main currencies: one US dollar costs ₹97.69, one euro ₹109.62 and one UAE dirham ₹27.24 in cash at Matrix Forex. That is the Indian rupee exchange rate for buying notes; the forex card, transfer and buy-back rates for all 37 currencies are in the list above.
What is the foreign exchange rate today?
Foreign exchange rates move through the trading day, so today's rate is the one shown on this page, updated live. Matrix Forex quotes four for each currency: cash, forex card, transfer and buy-back. The forex exchange rate on a card sits closer to the market than notes, which have to be imported, insured and delivered.
Why is the rate you buy back at lower than the rate you sell at?
Because notes are handled both ways. When you buy, notes are imported, insured, stored and delivered; when you sell them back, they are checked and shipped out again. A forex card or a transfer sits closer to the market.
Which rate applies to a forex card?
The card rate: choose "a forex card" in the sentence at the top. The card holds 28 currencies; on ₹1 lakh of US dollars its rate gives about ₹819 more currency than the cash rate today.
How often do the rates change?
Through the trading day, as the market moves. The time at the top of this page is the desk's last update; the dealer confirms your exact rate on the callback.
What does "on request" mean?
Nine currencies are not kept in branch stock: the Kuwaiti dinar, Omani rial, Bahraini dinar and six others. The desk sources them for each order and confirms availability and the rate on the call.
Why do the dirham and the riyal move with the dollar?
Their central banks fix them to the US dollar: 3.6725 dirhams and 3.75 riyals to the dollar. So their rupee price rises and falls with the dollar's.
Which currency do I need for Europe?
The euro in 21 countries, from Spain, France and Italy to Croatia and Bulgaria. The United Kingdom, Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Czechia, Poland and Turkey have their own currencies, and we sell all of them.
How much foreign currency can I carry in cash?
Up to the USD 3,000 equivalent as currency notes per trip; the rest goes on a forex card, within the USD 250,000 annual LRS limit.
Is tax charged when I buy foreign currency?
Tax collected at source applies once your foreign-exchange purchases in a financial year cross ₹10 lakh: nil when an education loan pays, 2% for self-funded education and medical treatment, and 20% for travel and everything else. It is credited against your income tax when you file.
How are currency exchange rates determined?
By supply and demand in the global currency market, where banks and dealers trade around the clock. Interest rates, inflation, trade and investment flows and central bank action move them; the Reserve Bank of India steps in to smooth sharp swings in the rupee. A dealer's price for notes adds the cost of handling them, which is why cash costs more than a card or a transfer.
