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 exchange rate for GBP to INR has shown resilience in recent months, currently trading at 119.6, which is 1.8% higher than the three-month average of 117.5. This range has remained quite stable, fluctuating between 115.1 and 119.9. Analysts attribute the pound's stability to factors surrounding the Bank of England’s (BoE) stance on interest rates. The BoE decided to maintain rates, which suggests that while the option for future cuts is open, a more dovish economic outlook is keeping the pound relatively steady against a backdrop of moderate consumer spending.

However, the outlook for the GBP faces potential challenges, particularly with upcoming retail sales figures that may reflect a dip in consumer confidence. HSBC and Deutsche Bank have adjusted their rate cut predictions for the BoE due to ongoing inflation concerns, with HSBC suggesting rates may hold until April 2026 whereas Deutsche Bank anticipates a possible cut as early as December. Investor sentiment is also being affected by the UK's fiscal situation and high long-term borrowing costs, as evidenced by the surge in the 30-year gilt yield to levels not seen since 1998.

On the other hand, the Indian rupee (INR) is encountering significant pressure, recently hitting a record low against the U.S. dollar at 88.36, influenced by fears of further U.S. tariffs on Indian exports and substantial foreign portfolio outflows, amounting to $1.4 billion in September alone. The Reserve Bank of India has intervened to stabilize the rupee by selling dollars, but the near-term outlook remains mixed with forecasts indicating that the INR is unlikely to experience further significant declines immediately.

While the INR could stabilize around 88.00 in the coming year, market experts emphasize the need to monitor U.S.-India relations and the impact of fiscal policy in both countries. As businesses and individuals engage in international transactions, understanding these dynamics is vital. The interplay between the steady pound and the pressured rupee suggests that those looking to exchange GBP for INR may find a favorable rate, provided market sentiments remain unchanged.
