This implies that the investment in Dollar terms is USD 50. If the fund earns 0% net returns then the investment value in USD terms is $50, explained Ram Kalyan Medury, Founder &amp; CEO, Maxiom Wealth, SEBI Registered Investment Advisor while sharing the example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.livemint.com\/market\/stock-market-news\/investors-get-poorer-by-over-rs-28-85-lakh-cr-on-d-street-in-a-month-is-there-a-breather-soon-11652289019276.html\">investor<\/a>&nbsp;redeems, if the USD\/INR exchange rate is say,&nbsp;\u20b970 to a dollar as compared to&nbsp;\u20b960 when he invested, then the investor will get redemption proceeds of&nbsp;\u20b93,500, clocking gains of&nbsp;\u20b9500 on an investment of&nbsp;\u20b93,000. Thus, a depreciation of rupee results in gains for owners of assets and receivers of income in USD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is supposed to result in significant gains for Indian investors who have already invested outside India. However, the math is not that simple, once we factor the market returns. Indian markets have given a much higher relative return when compared to the US markets. We suggest that investors not go overboard in foreign exposure; while some exposure is good, the allocations must be moderate,&#8221; said Medury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ram Kalyan Medury, Founder &amp; CEO <a href=\"http:\/\/maxiomwealth.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Maxiom Wealth <\/a>shared his views on Rupee Depreciation here.
