NRIs should be encouraged to send remittances home: ASSOCHAM

14 May 2012 Evaluate

India should make efforts to increasing internal demand and must put in efforts to encourage expatriates to send home more remittances to stabilize the rupee, says a survey conducted by the industry body ASSOCHAM.

The survey, conducted by bankers and economists, has observed that the recent outflows by the foreign institutional investors (FIIs) from India are not the result of only the so-called policy paralysis, but mostly because of risk aversion by the global investors into the equity markets. Hence efforts should be made to step up internal demand and thereby growth. Moderating interest rates will also help improve investor sentiment.

It has also been suggested that efforts should be made to motivate expatriates to send home more remittances like never before. High-level teams comprising of senior RBI officials, executive directors of banks and chairpersons and senior officials of the finance ministry should do road shows in Middle East, South-East Asia and Europe where there is a concentration of Indian expatriates, to mobilize remittances.

Further NRIs should be convinced to invest in India not only because India is their motherland but because it is growing economy with a lot of untapped potential. It is believed that NRI deposits in the country can be raised by at least $10-15 billion in the short term by taking confidence-building measures and offering attractive interest rates. So far a handful of banks have increased interest rates on NRI deposits which should enhanced further, says the survey. 

The Indian rupee has touched an all-time low and is moving closer to Rs. 54 per dollar with the pressure on increasing each time there is a percentage point drop in the BSE Sensex.
