 Appreciation & Depreciation
• Appreciation means when the value
of rupee against $ move up.
• $ got weaker when rupee got strong
• Depreciation means when the value
of rupee against $ goes down.
• In that case $ got stronger than
rupee
Reasons of Fluctuation
 Effect on Export

• Increasing the value of rupee has

destructive impact on exporter
• And decreasing value have positive
impact on them.
• Supposing a BPO company charged
$100 for its services, it would be
getting payed an equavalent amount
to Rs 4800 as per old exchange rates
• But because of the appreciating
rupee, it now gets payed Rs 4000,
and as the market gets increasingly
competative the company cannot
increase the fee it charges the client
to $120 to cover this loss, as it risks
losing the client to some other
company.
• According to the FICCI study, the
most significant impact of the
appreciating rupee is the pressure
on margins, with 86 per cent of the
exporter-respondents complaining
about it.
• This is the crux of the matter behind
the protest among some sections of
exporters against the appreciation.
 Effect on Different Sectors

• IT & BPO sector

• CHEMICAL PRODUCTS
• DOMESTIC MANUFACTURING
INDUSTRY
• Textile and Cotton industries
 When Value Appreciated!!!...

• Around 30% of the share of exports

to be affected
• More than 86% of exports in USD
• In Textile and cotton industries,
Exporters considering to layoff
275000 workers by year end
• Erosion of competitiveness
• Business shift to countries with
lower value of exchange rate
 Effect on Import

• Value of rupee has impact on import

as on export but vice-versa to the
export.
• In import when the rupee
appreciated, then it has positive
impact on importer and when it
depreciated, then it is harmful for
the importer.
For example

• A importer of gold pay 4800 Rs

for importing gold when Rs. was
at 48 per $. But now when Rs is
at 39Rs per $ then he has to pay
only 3900. so importer always
look for appreciate Rs against $.

Personal Computers and laptops

allowed to control inflation

should focus to stop more
depreciation in Rs. value.
• To sustain the growth rate, Govt.
should focus on welfare of importer
and exporter by providing subsidies.
