USD to INR Rates - 2026 Forecast

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

 

USD/INR Outlook:

The USD/INR is slightly positive but likely to move sideways as it trades near 14-day highs, just above its recent average. This is consistent with forecasts from HSBC, which anticipates INR stability due to strong growth and RBI intervention.

Key drivers:

• Rate gap: The US Federal Reserve's cautious stance contrasts with the Reserve Bank of India's continued growth focus, supporting the USD.

• Risk/commodities: Geopolitical uncertainty is bolstering demand for the USD as a safe haven, while fluctuations in oil prices could influence the INR further.

• One macro factor: Recent US jobless claims rise, lower than expected, that suggests a labor market maintaining strength, which supports the USD.

Range:

The pair is expected to drift within its recent 3-month range of 89.35 to 92.05.

What could change it:

• Upside risk: A significant drop in inflation from the upcoming US producer price index could boost USD further.

• Downside risk: An unexpected spike in oil prices might weaken the INR against the USD.
