GBP to INR 2025 Forecasts

Analysis of recent sterling → rupee forecasts for 2025. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest British pound to Indian rupee performance and trends.

 

The GBP to INR exchange rate has shown a recent uptrend, with the pound trading at 7-day highs near 118.4, representing a 1.5% increase from its 3-month average of 116.7. Analysts note that the GBP has been supported by rising producer prices in the UK, which have led to increasing expectations of a hawkish stance from the Bank of England, especially in light of the latest producer price index data indicating persistent inflationary pressures.

Recent business activity data has further underpinned the pound, as surveys revealed the best month in a year for UK business activity, largely spurred by a rebound in the services sector. However, inflation concerns remain notable, with July’s inflation rate climbing to 3.8%, its highest in 18 months, largely driven by transportation costs. Such developments may influence the Bank of England's monetary policy, with some forecasts suggesting a potential interest rate cut by 25 basis points in November due to ongoing inflationary pressures and resilient economic growth.

On the other hand, the Indian rupee has faced challenges, particularly due to increased dollar purchases by oil-importing companies, which resulted in a 0.24% depreciation against the U.S. dollar. Despite some foreign banks selling dollars, which provided intermittent support for the rupee, the upcoming imposition of U.S. tariffs on Indian goods threatens additional downward pressure on the currency. However, India's proposed tax cuts to stimulate the economy and improved geopolitical relations have the potential to support the rupee in the near term.

In summary, the GBP to INR exchange rate outlook remains influenced by a blend of UK inflation data and economic performance against the backdrop of ongoing pressures facing the Indian rupee from external factors and internal economic policies. As the market navigates these developments, traders may find that fluctuations could present opportunities for strategic international transactions.
