India’s rupee is getting a lifeline as the country reels in $73 billion in just 11 weeks through a special foreign currency deposit scheme for non-resident Indians — a record-breaking move aimed at stabilizing the currency amid rising energy costs and capital outflows. With over $65 billion already deposited and projections of nearly $80 billion before incentives expire on August 31, this initiative is reshaping India’s financial reserves. While the Reserve Bank uses these funds to smooth volatility — not steer direction — experts predict the rupee will dip slightly to 96.50 against the dollar by March 2027. The influx comes as global oil prices and falling foreign investment strain India’s trade balance, making the next few months critical as the scheme winds down and the nation braces for a potentially smaller surplus in FY27.
