10. Conclusion
The value of the rupee in terms of dollars will depend over time on the
erosion of its value in terms of purchasing power internally. If inflation
has been at say, 7 percent, the rupee will have to fall to that extent
unless the importing countries are themselves victims of inflation. That
is not the case. Hence, the rupee has fallen the most compared to other
currencies because we had nearly the highest inflation. Eventually, the
rupee will stabilize, barring short-term disturbances, after correcting the
loss in its domestic purchasing power. The rupee will not go back to 45 to
the dollar; at best it will stabilize at 51-52.
