INR weakens near Rs 94 per dollar mark amid resurgence in oil prices
The Indian rupee weakened for the third straight session, losing 39 paise to settle at 93.83 (provisional) against the US dollar on Wednesday as oil prices resumed surge amid uncertainty on US-Iran peace talks eroded hopes of easing West Asia conflict. Intense selling in domestic equity markets and sustained outflow of foreign capital also weighed on the Indian currency.

The Sensex settled 757 points or 0.95% lower at 78,516, while the Nifty 50 ended 198 points or 0.8% lower at 24,378.

The USD/INR pair is trading under pressure, dragged down by unabated withdrawal of foreign capital, a firm dollar, and higher crude oil prices amid a volatile geopolitical situation. Nevertheless, Indian shares recovered from an early slide to end notably higher on Tuesday as the clock ticked towards a deadline that U.S. President Donald Trump has set to bomb Iranian power plants if it does not open the Strait of Hormuz. Benchmark indexes Sensex and Nifty extended gains for a fourth consecutive session despite Trump describing a "significant proposal" received from Iran as "not good enough" and threatening to decimate Iran within four hours if it did not agree to a deal by Tuesday night.
