Indian rupee to British pound
The UK is one of the top study destinations for Indian students. See what your rupees convert to in pounds.
Paying UK university fees
Universities usually accept international bank transfers and often partner with specialist payment services that offer better rates than a standard bank wire. Compare the total rupees debited for the exact pound amount due. If the fee is funded by an education loan, tell the bank, since the tax treatment of the remittance can differ.
Questions
Should I pay the full year’s fee at once?
Some universities offer a discount for paying early, which may outweigh any currency risk. Otherwise, paying in instalments spreads your exposure to rate moves.
Is this the rate I will get?
It is the mid-market rate. Banks sell pounds at a higher rupee price.
