The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is the central bank of India and regulates the Indian banking system. It was established in 1935 by the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934. The RBI is responsible for issuing currency, maintaining monetary stability, and regulating the credit and investment system in India. It also acts as a controller of credit by influencing the volume of money supply in the economy.

In addition, the RBI provides banking services to the central and state governments and regulates the interest rates on government securities. As the regulator of the banking system, the RBI supervises and controls the activities of banks and financial institutions in India. It also plays an important role in developing and promoting the growth of the Indian economy.

Currently, RBI issues banknotes in denominations of 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500 and 2000 rupees. The value of 500 and 2000 rupee banknotes together account for 87.1% of the total value of all banknotes in circulation in 2022.

In February 2022, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and India signed a Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA). It came into effect in May 2022. The CEPA is a landmark agreement that is expected to boost bilateral trade between the two countries to USD 100 billion within five years.

The agreement aims to eliminate tariffs on more than 10,000 tariff lines within ten years, and it is expected to have a major impact on trading between India and the UAE. Both countries can now benefit from increased access to each other’s markets through reduced or eliminated customs duties on goods that originate in either country.

The CEPA is a historic agreement that will improve economic cooperation between the UAE and India, and bring substantial benefits to both countries.

There are many reasons why Indian ex-pats choose to live in the UAE. One of the main reasons is the opportunity to find well-paying jobs. The UAE is a country with a booming economy and many businesses are looking for skilled workers from all over the world. Indians often have the skills and qualifications that these businesses are looking for.

These businesses have flourished in the UAE due to the strong Indian diaspora community and the favourable business environment.

These factors have contributed to the success of Indian businesses in the UAE.

Money Transfers from the UAE to India – Personal Remittances

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is home to a large number of Indian migrants. According to the UN, there are almost 3.5 million Indian migrants in the UAE. Many of these migrants send money to support their families in India. They pay close attention to the dirham to rupee exchange rate.

According to the World Bank, personal remittances sent to India by migrants amounted to over $83 billion in 2020.

The Reserve Bank of India estimates that 18% of total remittances to India were received from migrants in the UAE. That’s a significant proportion, and it shows how important remittances from the UAE are to India.

Remittances from the UAE have therefore played a significant role in helping to lift millions of Indians out of poverty. They also contribute to India’s GDP. With continued economic growth in the UAE, personal remittances from migrants will likely continue to play an important role in supporting the Indian economy.
