| Notes | US$ billion, quarter = calendar quarter (2026-04-01 = April-June 2026). BPM6 item 3.5, net as RBI prints it: negative = reserves rose, positive = reserves drawn down. Excludes valuation changes. From Apr-Jun 2013. |
| Checked against the official release | 2026-11-03: Apr-Jun 2026 and Jul-Sep 2025 read against Statement I of the 1 Sep 2026 release (credit, debit, net); Apr-Jun 2013 against the Handbook 2014-15 PDF table. Every quarter 2013-2026 passes the BPM6 identity (CA + KA + FA + errors = 0, within US$ 6 mn). Current account matches the press-release series (bop_current_account) within 0.05 bn except 2024Q2, 2025Q3-2026Q1, where that series still holds earlier preliminary figures and this one has RBI's later revisions.
