    Just checked with xoom for current exchange rate and there is another big fall in Xchange rate :eek:

    Current Exchange Rate:
    US$ 1.00 = INR 38.2717

    Good for indian economy :) But at the same time bad for webmasters :rolleyes:

    Yes Rs is getting more and more stronger. Very bad news for Indian Webmasters..

    I am about to withdraw my 600$ but I think this is not the good time. Any chance to get lifted this rate?? Please suggest me...

    Not good for out of country designers and coders looking for American work.

    Pretty soon, it will be cheaper to hire developers in the US!

    Actually it's the USD getting weaker, not the Rupee getting stronger. 1GBP = $1.67 a few months ago. Now it's 1 GBP = $2. But still 1 GBP = 81 Rs.

    Just confirmed with Xoom.
    Exchange Rate: US$ 1.00 = Rs. 38.2717:mad:

    Its good that Indian economy is getting stronger. But for all of us, its a big time trouble.
    I think its time to increase the rates of our services.

    Yes Indian currency is going stronger then ever. Its due to the huge FII money being pumped into India. They sell their dollars and buy rupees to invest here. Therefore rupees starts gaining upward and vice versa. My dear friend not only you but all of the IT industry in India facing the same problem.

    I agree. The inflows are too strong. Investors in US want to switch to non-dollar assets. India is leading choice of such investors.

    More than $4 billion have come into Indian stocks after the US rate cut. The total inflows should be much more.

    The INR made a new high of 39.2 yesterday. (I am talking about the actual rate - not the Paypal rate).

    It makes no sense to wait for a better rate. Convert to INR as soon as possible.
