  • The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) adjusted the Current Account Deficit (CAD) for the second quarter, revising it to 1.3% from the earlier estimate of 1%. 
  • This adjustment was attributed to the upward revision of customs data pertaining to merchandise imports, highlighting the importance of accurate data in assessing the country's trade balance.
  • In the third quarter of the financial year 2023-24 (3QFY24), Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) witnessed a significant net inflow of $4.2 billion, marking a notable increase from the previous quarter's net inflow of $2 billion.
