India to open rupee/dollar futures to FIIs

Currently only open to residents and domestic institutions, the rupee/dollar futures market was launched in August this year.

A Kolkata-based currency analyst estimates turnover on the currency futures market in the country is about $64 million a day.

He expects this futures market to grow eight times once the FIIs are allowed to participate.
