India's Net International Investment Position Strengthens in Q4 FY2025-26, RBI Reports
India's net international investment position improved notably in the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2025-26, with net claims of non-residents declining by $52.4 billion to $209.9 billion by March 2026, according to RBI data. This was driven by a $40.1 billion reduction in foreign-owned assets and a $12.3 billion rise in Indian residents' overseas financial assets. Exchange rate movements also affected valuations. The ratio of India's international financial assets to liabilities rose to 85.2%, reflecting a stronger external financial position.
