India’s Forex Reserves Increase for Second Consecutive Week, Reaching USD 630.6 Billion
The RBI Governor noted that these foreign exchange reserves provide an import cover exceeding ten months. Overall, India’s external sector remains robust, with key indicators showing positive resilience.
It is important to highlight that fluctuations in foreign currency assets result from the central bank’s actions in the forex market as well as the appreciation or depreciation of the foreign assets in the reserves. The RBI’s interventions in the forex market are aimed at mitigating excessive volatility in the rupee.
The rupee experienced a decline of 0.9 percent against the US dollar in the week ending January 31, reaching a record low of 86.6525 per dollar.
“Our interventions in the forex market are designed to alleviate excessive and disruptive volatility, rather than targeting a specific exchange rate level or band. The exchange rate of the Indian Rupee is influenced by market forces,” the RBI Governor stated.
He emphasized that the Reserve Bank’s approach to exchange rates has remained steady over the years. “Our goal is to ensure orderliness and stability without sacrificing market efficiency.”
It is worth noting that the rupee, along with other emerging market currencies, has faced pressure amid concerns regarding US President Donald Trump’s tariff policies.

Key Rules for Transferring Inherited Property
Business : After the death of parents, legal heirs are eligible to inherit their property. However, certain procedures must be followed before the transfer is completed in India.
Heirs must file the deceased person’s income tax return for the year of death and pay any pending taxes. There is no estate tax on inherited property in India, but any income earned from it, such as rent or interest, is taxable.
If the property is sold, capital gains tax will apply based on the difference between the original purchase price and the selling price. Clearing any outstanding loans linked to the property is also mandatory.
