INR slides further as renewed geopolitical tensions led to surge in crude oil prices
The Indian rupee depreciated 5 paise to close at 94.90 (provisional) against the US dollar on Monday, amid renewed geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran and surge in crude oil prices.

At the interbank foreign exchange market, the rupee opened at 94.93 against the US dollar, then touched an intraday high of 94.73 and a low of 95.03 during the day.
