Rupee Crashes Against Pound Again

The Pakistani rupee (PKR) experienced a fluctuation against major currencies on October 20, 2026. For the 266th consecutive day, the PKR closed in the green against the US Dollar (USD), finishing at 276.86. However, the British Pound (GBP) returned to its previous rate of Rs. 371. The rupee demonstrated gains against the dollar since early December 2025.

Despite these trends, the PKR experienced a depreciation against other currencies, including a loss of Rs. 1.2 against the GBP and 99 paisas against the Australian Dollar (AUD). The decline was also evident against the Euro (EUR) and the Canadian Dollar (CAD). Conversely, the PKR showed slight increases against the UAE Dirham (AED) and the Saudi Riyal (SAR), gaining one paisa in each case.
