Article Summary

Over the past two years, the Indian rupee has fallen 26 percent in value against the U.S. dollar, reaching a record low of 61.80 rupees per dollar in August 2013. The decline reflects increasing capital outflows and pessimism regarding the government’s attempts to reverse this trend. The Indian government was expected to announce potential measures to increase the inflow of capital, including the possibility of raising debt abroad, raising money from Indians who live abroad, easing restrictions on overseas borrowing, and raising interest rates. Critics argue that current and well-entrenched policies deter capital inflow from investors and corporations, and raising interest rates may reduce confidence in the economy, which experienced a decade-low growth rate of 5 percent in 2013.
