Dropping Value of the Indian Rupee
According to our guest, ‘as an emerging country, a weaker currency is always better for us than a strong currency. But is it so? As India can gain profit from export, thus the less value of the Indian Rupee in caparison to a strong currency like the USD helps the Indian economy. It also gives an extra edge in completion with other countries in trade.
Sometimes, several countries intentionally try to lower their currency for trade benefits. Hence, it’s not a new or bad thing. It might be good for India. But it might be hazardous for imports like crude oil import, but it can be mitigated in other ways.
How Is India in Better Passion Than Its Neighboring Countries?
- The recent pandemic made the world understand that being entirely dependent on China is not great. Hence, the international community wants to shift their dependency towards other countries. As for the potential in terms of skill, human resources, required land, etc., India has these in large amounts than any other country. Here in India, we have a stable democratic structure, which can help.
- It proves our capabilities as many Indians or Indian-origin people are in global companies and top positions. Our guest mentioned a few countries that hire Indians as their top executives for their companies. Therefore, all of the above indicates that India can be the manufacturing hub and a reliable source of supply-chain management.
