(Q) Lets start with the basic, y does the rupee generally keep falling against $?

(Ans) Interest rate parity. Let me explain,

US interest rates r at 3% & India is at 7.5%. Isn’t it easy to borrow in the US at 3% & invest in India at 7.5% & make 4.5% risk free?

Nope ☺ (2/13)
Lets assume you borrow $100 at 3% from US to invest in India & are expected to pay back $103 at the year-end. In India, $1 is 75 & hence you first convert $100 * 75 to Rs. 7,500 which is invested at 7.5% giving you 8062.5 at the year end. (3/13)
