Reuters reveals India central bank prepared to spend $100 bln more defending rupeeon July 20, 2022 at 6:44 pm

Reuters was first to report that India’s central bank is prepared to sell a sixth of its foreign exchange reserves to defend the rupee against a rapid depreciation after it plumbed record lows in recent weeks. The rupee has lost over 7% of its value in 2022 and weakened past the psychological level of 80 per U.S. dollar on Tuesday.
