India recorded a balance of payments surplus of $45.4B in August, reversing from a deficit of $5.6B a year earlier. The turnaround follows central bank policy measures launched in June to attract capital inflows. The surplus eases pressure on the rupee after the Iran war drove up Brent Crude Oil prices and triggered capital outflows.
