Foreign exchange reserves increased by 7 billion dollars during the reporting week. The previous week saw an increase of 4.5 billion dollars.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) intervenes in the foreign exchange market to curb excessive fluctuations in the rupee.
Fluctuations in foreign currency assets are caused by RBI intervention and changes in foreign assets held in foreign exchange reserves.
Foreign exchange reserves also include India's reserve position in the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
For the week ending August 23, the rupee traded in a range of 83.7550 to 83.9650 and recorded a slight increase for the week.
