India's foreign exchange reserves have fallen by $14.88 billion to $765.90 billion, according to the Reserve Bank of India. This decline occurred during the week ending September 18. The drop in reserves is primarily due to a decrease in foreign currency assets, which fell by $14.82 billion. However, gold reserves rose slightly by $68 million. Despite the recent decrease, India's foreign exchange reserves are still significantly higher than they were a year ago, indicating a relatively stable economic situation.
