India's Forex Reserves Rise by $392 Million to $687.19 Billion

  • India's forex reserves increased by USD 392 million, reaching USD 687.19 billion for the week ending January 9.
  • This follows a USD 9.809 billion drop in the previous reporting week.
  • Foreign currency assets, a key component, decreased by USD 1.124 billion to USD 550.866 billion.
  • Gold reserves saw a significant jump, increasing by USD 1.568 billion to USD 112.83 billion.
  • Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) and India's reserve position with the IMF both declined slightly.

Why It Matters: India's forex reserves grew by $392 million, driven by a surge in gold reserves despite a fall in foreign currency assets.
