USD to INR 2026 Forecasts

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.

 

Bias: The USD/INR is bullish-to-range-bound, trading above the 90-day average and in the upper half of the last 3-month range.

Key drivers:

  • Rate gap: The Federal Reserve is expected to ease rates gradually, while the Reserve Bank of India shows a commitment to stabilizing the rupee through intervention.
  • Risk/commodities: Recent increases in oil prices can place additional pressure on the Indian Rupee as higher oil costs impact India’s trade balance and inflation.
  • Trade deficit: India's significant trade deficit has created downward pressure on the rupee, while geopolitical tensions add to the uncertainty surrounding its performance.

Range: The USD/INR is likely to remain in a stable trend, potentially testing the recent highs based on current market dynamics.

What could change it:

  • Upside risk: A stronger-than-expected U.S. jobs report could increase demand for the USD.
  • Downside risk: Any unexpected developments regarding U.S.-India trade negotiations may weaken the rupee further.
