Currency relationship
What the Saudi riyal's dollar peg means
The Saudi Central Bank maintains an official rate of 3.75 SAR per US dollar. That keeps SAR stable against USD, but it does not fix the number of rupees one riyal buys. The INR side of the pair can still rise or fall.
The Saudi riyal is fixed to the US dollar, while the Indian rupee is market-priced. Changes in USD to INR therefore flow through to SAR to INR.

Reference rate vs transfer rate
Use the rate gap as a quick check
The midpoint rate is a benchmark, not a promise of what a provider will offer. If a provider's rate is 1% below the midpoint, the recipient receives about 1% less INR before fees.
Saudi banks and remittance services commonly show their customer rate only after sign-in and beneficiary setup. Use the midpoint here as a benchmark, then compare the final INR amount inside the service.
Compare the final INR amount rather than the exchange rate or fee on its own.
