The FX commerce will open opportunities for foreign banks to gain significant profits from the Indian market.

India’s central bank stated that foreign sovereign bonds would not belong to a regulatory cap that requires holdings of stocks unlisted in India to be 10% or less of the total non-statutory liquidity ratio portfolio.

A spokesman from the Reserve Bank of India did not respond to the report from Bloomberg.
