It is estimated that Yen will depreciate to 144 level and Rupee to depreciate against Dollar to 43. The Forward rate for September 2020 USD/YEN = 137.35 and USD/INR 42.89. Given that the actual spot rate on 30 September 2020 was USD/YEN = 137.85 and USD/INR = 42.78, is the decision to take forward cover justified in hindsight?
