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.
