INR collapses to new historic lows driven by global conflicts and energy spikes
The Indian rupee slipped to a record low of 96.60 against the US dollar before settling at 96.52 (provisional) on Tuesday, weighed down by soaring crude oil prices, persistent foreign capital outflows, and a resilient dollar buoyed by global risk-aversion. The rupee is Asia's worst-performing currency in 2026, having tumbled to a historic intraday low of 96.60 against the US dollar. The currency has depreciated 1.5 per cent this month and more than 7 per cent so far this year. Rupee remains vulnerable to rising crude oil prices and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile, the Indian equity benchmarks surrendered their early morning gains in a highly volatile trading session to settle marginally lower due to late profit-booking. The BSE Sensex declined 114.19 points (0.15%) to close at 75,200.85, while the NSE Nifty 50 slipped 31.95 points (0.14%) to finish at 23,618.00.

Benchmarks snap 4-day losing streak; Nifty settles above 23,400
Domestic equity benchmarks Sensex and Nifty snapped a four-session losing streak to close higher on Wednesday, aided by value buying in beaten-down stocks. Market recovered from early volatility and profit booking to rebound sharply from intraday lows, with the Nifty settling above the 23,400 mark. Gains were led by metal, consumer durable and energy shares, while IT and auto stocks remained under pressure. However, overall sentiment stayed cautious amid elevated crude oil prices, persistent foreign institutional investor outflows, rupee weakness and lingering global inflation concerns. The Indian rupee also touched a fresh intraday record low of 95.80 against the US dollar.
INR collapses to fresh record low
The Indian rupee is seen collapsing to new record lows against the dollar in opening trades on Tuesday amid rebound in oil prices and dollar index edging higher. US President Donald Trump reportedly said that the ceasefire with Iran was on life support with hopes for a deal with the country fading, triggering a surge in crude oil prices. Market sentiments remained dominated by fears that the 10-week-old conflict could further tighten global supply, particularly after Trump rejected Tehran's latest response to a US-backed peace proposal, calling it totally unacceptable. At the interbank foreign exchange market, the rupee opened at 95.57 against the US dollar and then fell further to an all-time low of 95.63 against the greenback, down 35 paise from its previous close.

INR falls near record low levels hurt by elevated oil prices
The Indian rupee depreciated 14 paise to close near its all-time low at 94.82 (provisional) against the US dollar on Wednesday, pressured by rising crude oil prices, hovering well above $100 per barrel, and continued foreign capital outflows. Brent crude prices climbed toward $115 a barrel today, hitting a four-year high on mounting uncertainty around global supply amid the prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Elevated crude oil price is likely to sharply impact India's import costs, while the ongoing West Asia crisis and concerns over potential wider conflict are fuelling investor anxiety. Meanwhile, Indian shares rose notably on Wednesday despite mixed cues from global markets and growing anxiety over surging energy prices, capping downside in the counter. Sensex settled 609.45 points (0.79%) higher at 77,496.36 while Nifty 50 advanced 181.95 points (0.76%) to close at 24,177.65.
