<\/strong>
The Reserve Bank of India appears to have turned less aggressive in defending the rupee<\/a>, letting the currency slide closer to its real-effective exchange rate amid an emerging-market selldown. <\/p>\n

The central bank, which intervened actively until the rupee hit 69 per dollar<\/a>, has mostly stayed on the sidelines after the currency broke past the 70 psychological mark last week, according to foreign-exchange traders familiar with the RBIs market transactions. They asked not to be identified because they arent authorized to speak publicly. <\/p>\n

Policy makers signaled a tolerance for a weaker currency last week when a finance ministry official said it wont be a concern even if the rupee fell to 80 given the decline in peers. The RBIs own 36-currency real-effective exchange rate index indicates the currency remains overvalued, with Australia & New Zealand Banking Group Ltd. pegging its fair value at 73.50. <\/p>\n

\u201cOver the last couple of years the RBI<\/a> had been keen to deploy reserves whenever the rupee approached 69, but last weeks action suggests the RBI may be shifting its red lines as a result of peer currency weakness,\u201d said Maximillian Lin, an emerging-market Asia strategist at NatWest Markets Plc in Singapore. Lin sees the rupee at 70.40 by year-end. <\/p>\n

The rupee fell 0.1 percent to 70.19 per dollar on Friday, widening its year-to-date loss to 9 percent, the worst in Asia. The currency hit an all-time low of 70.3950 on Aug. 16. While the RBIs headline foreign-currency reserves fell $1.8 billion for the week of Aug. 10, the drop was probably largely due to valuation effects, according to Bloomberg Intelligence economist Abhishek Gupta. India held $400.9 billion of reserves as of Aug. 10, down from a record $426 billion mid-April, with the latest weekly data due today. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe are in a very uncertain world, and I think the RBI would like to keep reserves in their pocket, not trying to spend too fast,\u201d said Gopikrishnan MS, head of foreign exchange, rates and credit for South Asia at Standard Chartered<\/a> Plc in Mumbai. \u201cIf its going to be a global phenomena, outside Indias control, then the intervention will be low.\u201d <\/p>\n

The Reserve Bank of India has said it does not target any particular level of exchange rate and steps in only to curb undue volatility in the currency. Data on intervention is published with a two-month lag. <\/p>\n
