Key Features of India’s IIP in December 2019
Mar 31, 2020
Net claims of non-residents on India declined by US$ 10.4 billion to US $ 426.5 billion during the quarter ended December 2019 (Table 1).
The decline in net claims resulted from higher increase of US$ 28.3 billion in Indian residents’ overseas financial assets during the quarter in comparison with a rise of US$ 17.9 billion in foreign owned assets in India.
Increase in reserve assets (US $ 26.2 billion) was the dominant contributor to higher increase in Indian residents’ overseas financial assets, followed by overseas direct investments (US $ 3.3 billion).
Direct investments and portfolio investments liabilities increased by US $ 9.8 billion and US $ 6.7 billion, respectively, during the quarter.
Depreciation of the Indian rupee against the US dollar during the period contributed to the reduction in India’s liabilities, when valued in US dollar terms.
Reserve assets accounted for nearly 65 per cent of total foreign assets.
During the quarter, the share of debt liabilities in total liabilities remained around its level a quarter ago .
The ratio of India’s international financial assets to international financial liabilities improved to 62.1 per cent at end-December 2019 (60.5 per cent in September 2019).
