The reserves, the highest ever in recent times, of $90.353 billion, has risen by $2.615 billion mainly due to fresh inflows and depreciation of US dollar vis-a-vis other foreign currencies.

The Reserve Tranche Position with the International Monetary Fund saw a further addition of $6 million.

Gold reserves were static at $3.919 billion while the special drawing rights remained unchanged at $4 million, the apex bank said.
