India's Forex Reserves Decline by $14.88 Billion to $765.90 Billion in Week Ending September 18
India's foreign exchange reserves declined by approximately $14.88 billion to $765.90 billion in the week ending September 18, according to Reserve Bank of India data. The drop was mainly due to a $14.82 billion fall in foreign currency assets, which constitute the largest portion of reserves. Gold reserves increased slightly by $68 million, while Special Drawing Rights and the IMF reserve position saw minor decreases. Despite the recent decline, reserves remain significantly higher than the previous year and have shown overall growth since March.
