Since June, India has mobilized a record $127.23bn in foreign-currency deposits from its roughly 35m overseas diaspora via a special dollar swap window, the RBI said. Including $9.15bn of inflows from external commercial borrowings and overseas currency debt, total funds reached $136.38bn as of the scheme’s close.
