RBI measures restrict rupee’s slide

24 Jul 2013 Evaluate

Indian rupee appreciated against greenback on Wednesday, after the Reserve Bank of India took new steps to support the rupee. The central bank has tightened liquidity further and made it even difficult for the banks to access funds with measures including lowering the amount banks can borrow or lend under its daily liquidity window. The RBI also stated that banks now needed to maintain 99% of their daily cash reserve ratio requirements - the deposits they must set aside - with the RBI, compared with 70% previously.  These measures are expected to increase demand for rupee and reduce the volatility.

The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 59.42, stronger by 35 paise from its previous close of 59.77 on Tuesday. The currency has touched a high and low of 59.60 and 59.41 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at Rs 59.68 and for Euro it stood at Rs 78.68 on July 23, 2013. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 59.96, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 91.6621. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
