 As more nations try to de-dollarize international commerce, the Indian rupee is on the approach of becoming a world currency. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI), the country's central bank, has authorized the creation of 60 special rupee vostro accounts (SRVAs) in 18 nations, including Russia and Sri Lanka, to promote international trading in INR.

Bhagwat Karad, India's Minister of State for Finance, claims that the RBI has given the go-ahead for "domestic and foreign AD (Authorised Dealer) banks to open SRVAs of banks from 18 nations in 60 situations" in order to settle transactions in Indian rupees. Among of the 18 nations, Russia has been vociferous about promoting local currency transactions as part of the larger "de-dollarization" movement. To increase exports, India has been a prominent proponent of commerce in local currency.

Russia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Botswana, Fiji, Germany, Guyana, Israel, Kenya, Malaysia, Mauritius, Myanmar, New Zealand, Oman, Seychelles, Tanzania, Uganda, and the United Kingdom are among the 18 nations that are permitted to trade Indian rupees. This is a sizable advancement in the creation of the system for settling international trade in Indian rupees.

When the RBI published comprehensive instructions on cross-border commerce transactions in Indian rupees in July of last year, the SRVA procedure got underway. The RBI said that a new arrangement will be implemented for exports and imports to be invoiced, paid, and settled in INR. Authorized banks in India must open and maintain SRVAs of the banks in the partner trading nation in order to settle trade using the new procedure.

The foreign entity's holding in the Indian bank is kept in INR through these accounts. Amounts paid in rupees by an Indian importer to a foreign dealer are credited to this vostro account. Similarly to that, money from this vostro account will be taken out and credited to the exporter's normal account when an Indian exporter needs to be paid in rupees for products and services. The surplus balance may be invested in Indian government securities by SRVA holders.

In order to use this method, Indian importers must pay in INR (Indian Rupee), which must be credited into the specific vostro account of the correspondent bank of the partner nation, against the invoices for the supply of goods or services from the overseas seller/supplier, according to the RBI.

Since the West and European nations implemented sanctions following the commencement of a "special military operation" by Russian President Vladimir Putin against Ukraine on February 24, 2022, India has been attempting to encourage the usage of the INR for trade settlement with other countries. Sberbank, VTB Bank, and Gazprombank were among the first major Russian banks to receive RBI permission for SRVAs.

The switch to INR will encourage the use of India's currency in international commerce while reducing its reliance on the US dollar. Moreover, it will assist India in achieving its long-term objective of becoming an economic giant. The change is anticipated to bring more foreign investment to India and is considered as a positive move toward the globalization of the Indian economy.
