India's foreign exchange reserves rose by $1.85 billion to $595.05 billion in the week ended on June 30, the Reserve Bank of India said on Friday.
The overall reserve had dropped by $2.90 billion to $593.20 billion in the previous reporting week.
In October 2021, the country's forex reserve had reached an all-time high of $645 billion.

Expressed in dollar terms, the foreign currency assets include the effect of appreciation or depreciation of non-US units like the euro, pound and yen held in the foreign exchange reserves.
Gold reserves dropped by $472 million to $43.83 billion, the RBI said.
The Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) were down by $95 million to $18.24 billion, the apex bank said.
