Very Nice and crisp explanations. To add some points, even when US inflation exceeds that of India, RBI always has a policy to manipulate to make the rupee weak because they can keep selling INR and buy USD while they cannot do the other way around. So INR appreciation is almost not allowed except for a brief period until RBI intervenes. Secondly, once you start investing in India Income tax guys will start haunting you like a criminal asking questions on 6 to 7 year old investments multiple times and take all your time attending their summons and paying to auditors. From my experience it is better to invest outside India and keep limited investments in India to live a peaceful and respectful retirement life preferably as NRI. Even real estate investment returns for the past 10 years is insignificant considering the rupee depreciation, low rental rates compared to other countries though this is for a specific period.

[@sunnychirayil353]

To your question about inflation and Indian rupees position in the coming six months. , Dollar will strengthen and rupee will loose , again my speculation is rupee will position around $1 = Rs 74 , 75. Thanks

[@saibalmajumdar74]

I have seen dollar for Rs 5,50 and , I see now a dollar going for 73/74 INR. The trend was never in favor of Rs, nor it is now. Guy talks about if the inflation in India goes to two percent, and US inflation climbing to 6%, I will say that is a most unlikely scenerio. Only for two years ( 1979 and 1980) US inflation touched double digit, and for last few years inflation is below one pecent, and average US inflation has been less than 2% in last 50 years. India on the other hand always average 6 to 7% inflation and peak 27% this year due to the pandemic. So friends, I will never bet on Rs, for me dollar is the safest investment. It's your money, you can decide for yourself.

I can't thank you enough for providing me with this answer. Sounds simple enough to factor in the inflation rate when looking at interest rates of India and here in Canada. I was thinking of deposting money in India thinking of making more due to the interest here which is around max 1.25% to India which was giving me 6% average. Thank you for this video.

[@ankurbbhatt]

Dear Mr. Bhat, Thank you for your videos. The problem NRIs face with keeping money in NRE accounts is repatriation of money from the NRE account to their foreign currency account. I am in Australia and struggle to get the money/ interest accumulated in the NRE account back to my Australian bank account at a good exchange rate. Banks are the worst in shaving large sum of the the profit in to-fro movements and there are not many organizations which offer this service. Please advise/ make a video on better repatriation options other than banks if you know of. Thanks again, subscribed!

[@NRIMoneyClinic]

Dear Ankur Bhat, Yes a problem exist in this sphere . Not many money exchanges are there in India . You Can try Thomas Cook branch to remit back which may give you better rate. Don't transfer small amounts of money as fixed charges from banks will eat up your amounts. You can also consider FCNR deposits in Australian dollars if that helps. You may also consider opening a singapore account with ICICI bank or any other private Indian banks . If you have a specific query send it on my whatsapp [phone].

[@neeleshb9429]

To add one more, if you are US resident and keep FD etc in India, you are liable to pay taxes to Federal & stage govt (which you pay in dollars each year), so in long run, as rupee depreciates your savings value decrease, as you end up paying more taxes in dollars and loose value. Another thing, people think investing real estate in India is good option, but what I have seen, the dollar value of the real estate change is almost negligible, e.g. a 2B flat in 2015 in Bangalore cost 40L, today its value is 55L, but the dollar value for both these is 67k usd. so essentially you did not make any money, but paid for property taxes, interest on emis, and when you go for selling these you end up paying more taxes, as that is capital gains in INR. Even if you think earning additional income by renting your real estate, its not that easy and not everyone can manage it remotely.

[@krishnamullur6359]

Good narrative in a simple way in current situation. Things will be very kinetic from time to time when it comes to financial wealth. The change in worth of a dollar or rupee or any such currency depends on multi dimensional aspects of a country's economical well being mainly and volume of trade it has internationally. I expected he would explain what contributes to inflation. Inflation is mainly of printing paper currency recklessly to distribute when there is no real production to net effect. Like the cost of real estate multiplying in 5 to 10 digits in any nation when the piece of land is just appreciating with out zero production from it as a raw material. If you treat a piece of real estate over grows it's value inflation will cross double digits. Good communication on current state of Rupee Vs Dollars.

Currency involves two things, exchange rate and interest rate. These are supposed to offset each other. However, if you use BlockFi, and keep your money in usd coins you can earn 8% interest rate, this getting the advantage of both exchange rate and interest rate. Unfortunately blockfi is not available in New York State yet.

[@truthsayer5824]

India is inflated economy. If you keep in INR it will be very quickly devalued. USD is very strong because US govt is stronger than Indian govt. They never allow USD to go down in the international market. If you are affordable to hold USD, then it is always be your first choice of keeping it. Invest in proper way instead of paper currency to get the money growing. Good luck.

[@nooneknowsnothing]

30+ years outside the country, best advice is keep it on DOLLARS until you need it very badly. DO not invest in land ( worst , its like gambling - only a very few are lucky in this ). Invest it in the stock market - even the index stocks will fare much better. Do not buy homes or buy lands or any thing. If you want to buy home, buy after 3 years of going back. Gold is another dumbest investment. Buying for parents, buy in smaller area , enough for them and don't buy that to show off.

[@nooneknowsnothing]

Never invest in India on lands or homes until you went back and lived there for years. Your interest/dividends from those investments in US stock market ( UK or Australia ) will pay for a nice rental place. While your investments will grow in leaps and bounds in stock market and with the conversion rate, you will be much happier. Don't listen to the stories which are like lottery winners.
