NEW DELHI – India's foreign exchange reserves rose to a record high of $725.73 billion in the week ended Feb. 13, data released by the Reserve Bank of India showed Friday. Reserves rose $8.66 billion on week. In the week ended Feb. 6, India's foreign exchange reserves fell to $717.06 billion, primarily on the back of a decline in gold holdings.
The value of the central bank's gold holdings rose to $128.47 billion in the reporting week, up $4.99 billion from the previous week. Foreign currency assets, however, rose $3.55 billion from the previous week to $573.6 billion as of Feb. 13. Calculated in dollar terms, the RBI's foreign exchange reserves also reflect the impact of appreciation or depreciation of currencies other than the dollar, such as the euro, the pound sterling, and the yen, held by the central bank.
