RBI tells exporters to guard against strong rupee

Our Bureau

Hyderabad, Dec. 15 The rupee will appreciate further due to inflow of foreign funds and the central bank may not always regulate exchange rate fluctuations, according to Mr Durai Rajan, Assistant General Manager, RBI. Market driven exchange rate is a necessary evil and exporters should factor in rupee appreciation in international business deals. Mr Rajan was addressing bankers and exporters at the first meeting of the sub-committee on export promotion of the State Level Bankers Committee (SLBC) here .

The meeting asked exporters to look at linking their trade with currencies like euro that were rising against the dollar. This can offset the losses due to strong rupee.

Mr Rajan said the RBI was concerned about violation of regulatory procedures by the exporters and asked them to realise the export outstanding at the earliest.

The Executive Director of Andhra Bank, Mr Kalyan Mukherjee said that the State was contributing a major chunk (Rs. 40,601 crore in 2006-07) to India’s exports.
