State oil-refiners, who are the biggest buyers of US dollars, agreed to implement the RBI order with immediate effect, sources with direct knowledge of the development said. The companies were even willing to accept RBI selling dollars directly to them through a single window.
The RBI issued orders to Indian Oil (IOC), Hindustan Petroleum (HPCL), Bharat Petroleum (BPCL) and Mangalore Refinery (MRPL) to stop seeking quotes from several banks for their USD 8-8.5 billion of monthly US dollar requirements.
Oil firms seeking multiple quotes for their dollar requirement was felt to be one of the reasons adding to speculation on demand for the American currency and volatility in the local unit. The RBI, sources said, asked oil firms to buy dollars from a single bank at their published reference rate.
IOC, the nation's largest refiner, will buy their monthly requirement of USD 3.8-4 billion dollars from its official banker State Bank of India. Similarly, BPCL, HPCL and MRPL will buy their dollar requirement from a single bank. The decision follows Monday's meeting between RBI and oil firms to discuss measures to control volatility and high fluctuations in the exchange rate.
The central bank had last year suggested that refiners buy their dollar requirement from a single public sector bank to end speculation in rupee market caused by competitive quotes taken from multiple banks. But the measure was never implemented as RBI did not give written order as sought by oil firms to end their practice of seeking competitive quotes.
