The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) has said that the fall in the value of rupee does not benefit exporters, instead, a stable range-bound currency is needed for long term sustainable growth of India's international trade. It also said that in the present globalised environment, majority of costs like raw material, shipping charges, warehousing and other related services are denominated in foreign currency or at import parity price.
According to the chamber, most of exporters do long term hedging at the time of booking of orders, while importers press for reduction in prices citing depreciation of rupee. Hence, Chairman of CII National Committee on Exports and Imports Sanjay Budhia has said that it is more of a perception than reality that fall of Rupee helps exporters. He pointed out that what is required is a stable range-bound currency which will give stability and certainty for quoting prices and accepting orders in today's competitive global environment.
Recently, the rupee has taken a beating amid volatility in global markets and strengthening of the greenback. The central bank has been taking various measures to shore up the rupee.
