At a time when Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) inflows remained subdued and Foreign Portfolio Investment (FPI) witnessed significant outflows, these remittances played a crucial role in supporting the Indian rupee and helping India maintain a Balance of Payments (BoP) surplus. But can remittances continue to sustain India's external sector in the long run? In this video, we explain what remittances are, why they surged during FY26, the impact of the West Asia conflict and rupee depreciation, changing remittance patterns from the Gulf to advanced economies, and why stronger FDI inflows and better management of the trade deficit remain essential for India's long-term economic stability. This topic is highly important from the perspective of UPSC Prelims, Mains (IndiaIndia Receives Record $110 Billion Remittances! But Can They Save the Economy? | UPSCn Economy), Current Affairs, and other competitive examinations. ************************************************************************* महत्त्वपूर्ण प्लेलिस्ट: 1.
