💵 RBI just made a move that could strengthen the rupee The latest FCNR(B) deposit changes are not just for NRIs. They are part of a broader strategy to bring more foreign currency into India. 📌 What changed: • Banks can now offer higher returns on FCNR(B) deposits • NRIs and OCIs can deposit money in foreign currency through Indian banks • Returns are earned in USD, reducing currency depreciation risk • Deposit window: 8 June to 30 September 2026 • Available for tenures of 3 to 5 years Why does this matter? More dollar deposits mean stronger forex reserves, better liquidity and greater support for the rupee during global uncertainty. Instead of directly buying dollars from the market, RBI is encouraging foreign currency inflows through the banking system. It is a quiet policy move with a potentially big economic impact. The goal is not just higher returns for NRIs. It is to strengthen India’s financial position for the long term.
