 rediff.com: Dilip Thakore on the steady devaluation of the Indian rupee
Time was, during the bad old days of the British Raj, when the Indian rupee was one of the strongest currencies in the world and was not only fully convertible but also legal tender in all of South Asia and large swathes of terra firma in the Middle East.
The second argument against permissive creeping devaluation of the rupee is the import-intensity of the Indian economy.
Yet the moot point is that with informal devaluation of the rupee proving to be of hardly any help to exporters and serving instead to widening the trade deficit within the increasingly imports-intensive Indian economy, the Reserve Bank and the Union government should pull out all the stops to defend the rupee.
