Today, the Reserve Bank released data relating to India’s International Investment Position for end-June 2023[1]. Key Features of India’s IIP in end-June 2023: Net claims of non-residents on India increased by US$ 12.1 billion during Q1:2023-24 and stood at US$ 379.7 billion as at end-June 2023.The rise in net claims of non-residents during the quarter was on account of higher rise in foreign-owned financial assets in India (US$ 36.2 billion) when compared with Indian residents’ overseas financial assets (US$ 24.1 billion) (Table 1).Increase in reserve assets (US$ 16.6 billion) was the largest contributor to the rise in Indian residents’ foreign assets during April-June 2023, followed by direct investment, loans and trade credit.Inward portfolio investment (US$ 15.0 billion) and foreign direct investment (US$ 8.9 billion) together accounted for two thirds of the rise in foreign liabilities of Indian residents.Reserve assets accounted for 64.2 per cent of India’s international financial assets at end-June 2023 (Tables 1 and 2).

The stock of external debt at end-June 2023 as well as revised data for earlier quarters are set out in Statements I (IMF format1) and II (old format). The major developments relating to India’s external debt as at end-June 2023 are presented below.Highlights At end-June 2023, India’s external debt was placed at US$ 629.1 billion, recording an increase of US$ 4.7 billion over its level at end-March 2023 (Table 1).The external debt to GDP ratio declined to 18.6 per cent at end-June 2023 from 18.8 per cent at end-March 2023.

Earlier today, the Reserve Bank of India released balance of payments (BoP) data for April-June 2023 on its website (www.rbi.org.in). On the basis of these data, the sources of variation in foreign exchange reserves during April-June 2023 are detailed below: Sources of Variation in Foreign Exchange Reserves: April-June 2023 During April-June 2023, there was an increase in the foreign exchange reserves, the sources of which are set out in Table.

Preliminary data on India’s balance of payments (BoP) for the first quarter (Q1), i.e., April-June 2023-24, are presented in Statements I (BPM6 format) and II (old format).Key Features of India’s BoP in Q1:2023-24.India’s current account deficit (CAD) narrowed to US$ 9.2 billion (1.1 per cent of GDP) in Q1:2023-24 from US$ 17.9 billion (2.1 per cent of GDP) in Q1:2022-23 but it was higher than US$ 1.3 billion (0.2 per cent of GDP) in the preceding quarter.1
The widening of CAD on a quarter-on-quarter basis was primarily on account of a higher trade deficit coupled with a lower surplus in net services and decline in private transfer receipts.Net services receipts decreased sequentially, primarily due to a decline in exports of computer, travel and business services, though remained higher on a year-on-year (y-o-y) basis.

Data on lending and deposit rates of scheduled commercial banks (SCBs) (excluding regional rural banks and small finance banks) for the month of September 2023.Highlights: Lending Rates:The weighted average lending rate (WALR) on fresh rupee loans of SCBs increased by 3 basis points (bps) from 9.44 per cent in July 2023 to 9.47 per cent in August 2023.1-Year median Marginal Cost of Fund based Lending
