RBI Rupee Dollar Window October 2026 RBI ka rupee ko bachane wala sabse bada plan hai. Saturday, 10 October 2026 ko Reserve Bank of India ne rupee ke record-low ke paas pahunchne ke baad 5 bade faisle announce kiye — jisme sabse aham hai oil companies ke liye direct dollar window, jo Monday, 12 October se live ho gayi. Announce hote hi rupee ne 12 October ko apna April ke baad ka sabse strong din dekha.
RBI Rupee Dollar Window October 2026: 5 Bade Faisle
RBI ne ye package tab announce kiya jab Friday ko rupee 96.73 per dollar par band hua tha — May 2026 me bane all-time low 96.96 ke bahut paas. Central bank ke ye paanch kadam hain:
1. Oil companies ke liye direct dollar window
12 October se RBI teen sarkari oil companies — Indian Oil Corporation, Bharat Petroleum aur Hindustan Petroleum — ki poori daily dollar zaroorat apne forex reserves se seedha poori karega, designated banks ke through. Crude oil import ke liye har din khula bazaar se dollar kharidna in companies ki sabse badi dollar demand thi; ye demand ab spot market se hat jayegi, jisse rupee par dabav kam hoga.
2. Currency derivatives par sakht limit
Exchange-traded currency derivatives me rupee wali positions ki limit $100 million se ghata kar sirf $5 million kar di gayi hai. Matlab, bina asli underlying exposure ke badi speculative bets par lagam lag gayi.
3. Rebooking par rok
Authorised dealers ab rupee forex derivative contracts cancel hone ke baad unhe dobara book (rebook) nahi kara sakte, in directions ke lagu hone ke baad. Maturity par rollover ab bhi allowed hai — rok sirf naye speculative rebooking par hai.
4. 20% Foreign Exchange Risk Reserve
$2 million se upar notional value wale rupee forex derivative contracts ke liye authorised dealers ko ab har transaction ke notional amount ka 20% cash reserve RBI ke paas rakhna hoga. Ye badi speculative positions ke against liquidity buffer ka kaam karega.
5. Duplicate hedging band
Ab users ko written undertaking deni hogi ki wahi exposure kisi doosre authorised dealer ke through pehle se hedge nahi kiya gaya hai. Ek hi risk ko do jagah hedge karke fayda uthane wali practice par rok.
Rupee Kyun Dabav Me Tha
Rupee par dabav ke peeche kaaran global dollar ki mazbooti, crude oil ki unchi keemtein aur portfolio outflows rahe hain. RBI ne dollar khareedne aur policy rate badhane jaise kadam pehle bhi uthaye, lekin rupee par dabav bana raha. Bloomberg ne is package ko 2013 ke currency crisis ke baad RBI ka sabse aggressive action bataya hai.

Market Ka Reaction
Saturday ko thin trading me one-month dollar/rupee NDF contract lagbhag 40 paise neeche gaya. Aur Monday 12 October ko rupee ne dollar ke muqable ~1% ki majbooti dikhai — April ke baad ka sabse strong din. Analysts ka kehna hai ki oil companies ki dollar demand ko khule bazaar se hatane se volatility ghatne ki ummeed hai, lekin isse forex reserves me kami bhi dikhegi.
Aam Aadmi Par Kya Asar Hoga
- Petrol-Diesel: Crude oil ka import sasta/sthir ho to tel companies ki import cost par dabav kam hota hai. Lekin yaad rakhein — ye seedha petrol ke daam ghataane wala faisla nahi hai.
- Imported samaan aur videsh yatra: Stable rupee se imported electronics, videsh padhai aur videsh yatra ki cost par lagam lagti hai.
- Niveshak: Rupee ki stability se foreign investors ka bharosa badhta hai, jo share market ke liye achhi khabar ho sakti hai.
- Hedging cost: 20% reserve rule se bade corporates ki hedging cost badh sakti hai, jiska asar import-export pricing par aane wale mahinon me dikh sakta hai.
