GreyOak summary
India's current account deficit widened to $7.4 billion in September 2026 from $5.2 billion last year, driven by a sharp rise in primary income outflows to $7.6 billion and a dip in remittances. Despite a narrowing merchandise trade deficit, net FPI outflows reached $6.7 billion, though banking capital inflows of $22.2 billion offset these outflows to create an overall BoP surplus of $8.8 billion.
