Indian investors are diversifying globally at an unprecedented pace. Recent data reveals a staggering 108% year-on-year increase in equity investments through the Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS), with total remittances reaching $8.37 billion in 2024. This isn’t merely a passing trend but a fundamental shift in investment strategy among Indian investors who are increasingly recognising the importance of geographical diversification. The drivers behind this transformation are multi-factorial. The steady depreciation of the Indian rupee—from Rs 74.5 in January 2022 to Rs 87.4 in March 2025—provides a structural tailwind, effectively offering an additional 3-4% annual return on US investments.
