Related Data

What is INR (Indian Rupee)?

A managed float, not pegged to any other currency - the RBI lets the market set its value but occasionally buys or sells dollars to smooth out sharp swings.

Key Facts

  • ISO code: INR
  • Symbol: โ‚น
  • Subunit: 100 paise = 1 rupee
  • Issued by: Reserve Bank of India (RBI)

What is NAD (Namibian Dollar)?

Pegged 1:1 to the South African Rand as part of the Common Monetary Area - the rand also circulates as legal tender in Namibia alongside its own dollar.

Key Facts

  • ISO code: NAD
  • Symbol: $
  • Subunit: 100 cents = 1 dollar
  • Issued by: Bank of Namibia

Why Does the INR/NAD Exchange Rate Change?

The INR/NAD rate moves every trading day, driven mainly by:

  • The Rand peg itself - NAD is fixed 1:1 with the South African Rand as part of the Common Monetary Area, so INR/NAD moves almost identically to INR/ZAR.
  • Everything that moves INR/ZAR (South African Reserve Bank policy, mining export prices, global risk sentiment toward emerging markets) therefore also moves INR/NAD.
  • Namibia's diamond, uranium and other mineral export revenue.
  • Namibia's own fishing and tourism sectors, secondary but real foreign currency sources.
  • India-Namibia trade, notably mineral imports.
  • RBI intervention and rupee-side factors - since the peg holds, essentially all of this pair's real movement traces back through ZAR to the rupee side.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Namibian Dollar pegged to the South African Rand?

Yes, 1:1, as part of the Common Monetary Area (alongside Lesotho and Eswatini) - the rand also circulates as legal tender in Namibia alongside its own dollar. Because of that, INR/NAD moves almost identically to INR/ZAR.

Why does Namibia use its own currency if it's pegged 1:1 to the Rand anyway?

Like Brunei with Singapore, it's largely a matter of national identity and monetary sovereignty - the peg delivers the same practical exchange rate stability as using the rand directly, while Namibia still issues and controls its own currency.

Is this the bank rate or forex rate?

It's the mid-market rate, the midpoint between the buy and sell price on the global currency market, with no margin added. Banks, forex counters and card networks add their own markup on top, so the rate you're actually charged when exchanging cash or paying by card abroad will differ, usually by 1 to 4 percent in their favor.

How often is the rate updated?

Once a day, refreshed at 7:00 AM IST from the Frankfurter API.

Where do these rates come from?

Frankfurter (frankfurter.dev), a free exchange-rate API that blends official reference rates from multiple central banks rather than relying on a single source.

Can I use this rate for an actual currency conversion?

Use it as a reference for roughly what you should be getting, not as the exact rate you'll receive. An actual transaction, a bank transfer, cash exchange, or a card payment abroad, goes through your bank or exchange provider's own rate, which includes their margin and any transaction fees.
