India’s current account balance remained unchanged at -1.30% of GDP in the fourth quarter of 2025, according to data updated on 31 March 2026. The reading matches the previous quarter’s level, indicating a period of stability after prior movements in the external balance.
On a quarter-over-quarter basis, the latest figure shows no further deterioration or improvement in India’s current account position relative to the previous quarter, with the indicator holding at the same -1.30% of GDP. The comparison framework used for this release assesses the change in the current quarter against the prior one, while the “previous” figure reflected the change seen in the prior quarter versus its own preceding period.
The flat reading suggests that, over the closing months of 2025, India’s external accounts neither added to nor eased existing pressures on the balance of payments, leaving the current account deficit steady as a share of overall economic output.
