xe.com will give you up-to-date exchange rates. Currently 1 USD = Rs 48, and 1 GBP = Rs 80, give or take an ounce.

Exchange rates for cash and T/Cs may vary slightly but not by much.

Another alternative is to use a credit or debit card at ATMs which are widely available. Just tell your bank before you go that you'll be using it overseas.

ATMs are available almost everywhere; they're quick and safe.
