We present the X-ray spectral and timing analysis of the transient black hole X-ray binary 4U 1630-47, observed with the AstroSat, Chandra, and MAXI space missions during its soft X-ray outburst in 2016. The outburst, from the rising phase until the peak, is detected neither in hard X-rays (15-50 keV) by the Swift/BAT nor in radio. Such nondetection, along with the source behavior in the hardness-intensity and color-color diagrams obtained using MAXI data, confirms that both Chandra and AstroSat observations were performed during the HS spectral state. The High Energy Grating (HEG) spectrum from the Chandra High-Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer shows two strong, moderately blueshifted absorption lines at 6.705_–0.002^+0.002 keV and 6.974_–0.003^+0.004 keV, which are produced by Fe XXV and Fe XXVI in a low-velocity ionized disk wind. The corresponding outflow velocity is determined to be 366 ± 56 km s^–1. Separate spectral fits of Chandra/HEG, AstroSat/SXT+LAXPC, and Chandra/HEG+AstroSat/SXT+LAXPC data show that the broadband continuum can be well described with a relativistic disk blackbody model, with a disk flux fraction of ∼0.97. Based on the best-fit continuum spectral modeling of Chandra, AstroSat, and Chandra+AstroSat joint spectra and using the Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations, we constrain the spectral hardening factor at 1.56_–0.06^+0.14 and the dimensionless black hole spin parameter at 0.92 ± 0.04 within the 99.7% confidence interval. Our conclusion of a rapidly spinning black hole in 4U 1630-47 using the continuum spectrum method is in agreement with a previous finding applying the reflection spectral fitting method.
