| | An appreciation of the rupee (implying that less rupees exchange for a dollar) increases the dollar value of the country's exports (that is, makes them more expensive) and reduces the rupee value of imports (makes them cheaper). | | | Faced with an excess supply of dollars for the reasons noted earlier, the RBI has been forced to purchase dollars from the market and add them to its reserves in order to prevent the rupee from appreciating. | | | To start with, the larger the inflow, the greater the buoyancy of the market, since, at the margin, stock market values are substantially influenced by the volume of FII investments. |
