Ex-RBI Governor Subbarao Says Rupee Should Reflect Economic Fundamentals
Former RBI governor D Subbarao advises that attempts to correct the rupee's value through costly short-term measures are ultimately ineffective. He emphasizes allowing the rupee to find its level based on economic fundamentals and managing its trajectory rather than fixing it at a specific rate. Subbarao highlights that the recent rupee recovery followed RBI's measures to curb dollar demand but stresses the need for structural reforms, including tax changes, to attract durable foreign investment and strengthen the currency sustainably.
