The Reserve Bank of India expanded its short dollar forward book to a record $104B in March to defend the rupee. The position grew $26.5B in one month as conflict between the United States and Iran drove energy prices higher. Investors face a potential currency drag if the central bank unwinds these positions, creating fresh dollar demand.
