Are HJR rates the same at every branch?

Availability is not: a smaller branch may not hold enough physical foreign currency to fill a large cash exchange, and larger transactions may require identification and supporting documents.

How does ET-Forex get Hijra Bank rates?

Directly from the exchange rate board Hijra Bank publishes itself, re-read automatically several times a day. Nothing here is estimated and no parallel market rate is included. If the bank has not refreshed its board, this page says so and shows the trading day the figures actually belong to instead of implying they are current.
