Frequently Asked Questions
How frequently are live forex rates updated?
Our live forex rates update every few seconds during active trading hours. The forex market is the largest and most liquid financial market in the world, and prices fluctuate constantly as trades are executed across global exchanges. During Indian market hours, INR pairs see the most frequent updates. For global pairs like EUR/USD, prices are active nearly 24 hours from Monday to Friday.
What is the difference between bid and ask prices in forex?
The bid price is what buyers are willing to pay for a currency, while the ask price is what sellers are asking. The difference between the two is called the spread. For highly liquid pairs like USD/INR, the spread is usually very tight. When you see a single forex rate displayed, it is typically the mid-price — the average of the bid and ask. Actual trading prices may differ slightly depending on your broker and the time of day.
Why do USD/INR rates differ between banks and the exchange?
Banks add their own margin on top of the interbank rate when selling foreign currency to retail customers. This margin can range from 50 paise to Rs 2 or more depending on the bank and transaction type. The rate you see on exchanges like NSE is closer to the wholesale interbank rate. For large transfers or travel forex, it pays to compare rates across banks, forex dealers, and online platforms to get the best deal.
