Depreciation of Indian currency

DEPRECIATION OF INDIAN CURRENCY

• Because of the Russia-Ukraine crisis, FPI investors were leaving India which was leading to depreciation in rupee. 

•Rupee was also under pressure due to increase in crude oil prices. This is because oil importers are purchasing more dollars from the forex market to get the same one barrel of crude oil. 

•Demand of dollars increasing and rupee depreciating which were leading to rupee depreciation. 

•Because of rupee depreciation, imports (in rupee terms) are becoming costlier which will lead to increase in inflation in the coming time in India .

•When the rupee liquidity (money supply) is reduced, inflation will come down and rupee will move towards appreciation. 

•In this swap, auction happens and those banks will be selected for the swap which will quote the least premium below a particular cut-off premium.
