Because Nepal Rastra Bank maintains a fixed peg of 1 Indian Rupee to 1.60 Nepalese Rupees, set in February 1993. The rate only changes if NRB revises the peg itself, which has not happened since.
Can I use Indian Rupees directly in Nepal?
Indian currency is widely accepted in Nepal, particularly in border areas, and smaller notes circulate freely. Higher-denomination Indian notes are restricted, so check Nepal Rastra Bank's current rules before carrying large amounts of Indian cash into Nepal.
