About the Saudi riyal rate in Nepal
The Saudi riyal is pegged to the US dollar, so its rupee rate moves almost exactly in step with the USD to NPR rate.
Nepal Rastra Bank publishes reference buying and selling rates every day. These are not the rates you get at a bank counter or from a money transfer app: commercial banks, money changers and remittance companies set their own rates and fees around them.
