INR to GBP 2026 Forecasts

Analysis of recent rupee → sterling forecasts for 2026. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest Indian rupee to British pound performance and trends.

 

The current market bias for the INR to GBP exchange rate is bearish.

Key drivers include:

  • Interest rate differentials: The Bank of England is expected to lower rates, while the Reserve Bank of India might maintain its stance, which could widen the gap.
  • Economic growth: India's robust growth contrasts with the UK's anticipated slowdown, influencing currency strength.
  • Trade relations: Ongoing trade concerns and tariff impacts between the UK and U.S. may also create pressures on the GBP.

In the near term, the exchange rate is expected to trade within a stable but limited range, influenced by recent movements. The INR to GBP rate is currently about 1.9% below its three-month average, indicating some downward pressure.

An upside risk could arise from improved trade relations between India and the U.S., potentially strengthening the INR. Conversely, a downside risk includes any significant cuts in UK interest rates that may weaken the GBP further.
