NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India's end-September external debt rose to $484.3 billion, up $4.8 billion from end-June, largely driven by an increase in long-term borrowings, the Finance Ministry said on Friday.

On a residual maturity basis, short-term debt constituted 42 percent of total external debt at end-September, compared with 42.4 percent at end-June.
