NEW DELHI – India's foreign exchange reserves fell by $711 million on week to $681.61 billion as of Jun. 5, data released by the Reserve Bank of India showed Friday. The Indian currency was broadly steady against the dollar in the week ended Jun. 5, primarily due to the RBI's announcement of a series of measures to attract overseas inflows into India.
The rupee has been under extreme pressure due to concerns about a wider current account deficit following a surge in crude oil prices triggered by the war in West Asia. The Indian currency has depreciated 5.8% against the dollar so far in 2026.
Foreign currency assets fell $2.70 billion on week to $543.44 billion as of Jun. 5. The value of the central bank's gold holdings, however, rose $1.98 billion to $114.58 billion as of Jun. 5.
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. End
