Reserve Bank of India has set up a special forex purchase window for state-owned refiners to route their daily dollar buys for crude and product imports through State Bank of India, people familiar said. The arrangement could cut spot dollar demand by about $10bn a month, relieving downward pressure on the rupee. The RBI said in a Saturday statement that under the mechanism it will sell dollars to state firms via designated banks. Previously Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum and Hindustan Petroleum sourced dollars across multiple banks, adding pressure on the currency; the three refiners have combined crude processing capacity of over 3.0 mln barrels per day and also import other petroleum products, mainly LPG.
