Firm strength in dollar offsets gains in INR made from positive equities and easing oil prices
The Indian rupee depreciated 34 paise to close at 94.67 (provisional) against the US dollar on Monday, weighed down by the strength of the American currency in the overseas market. Rupee witnessed volatility as steady debt and deposit inflows pulled the domestic currency in one way, while the lack of clarity on the Middle East peace deal and a firm dollar pulled it the other way. The Indian stock market, which snapped a five-day winning streak on Friday, rebounded and closed higher on Monday, lifted by gains in technology, healthcare and oil sectors. The mood in the market remained positive amid reports of progress in US-Iran peace talks. Additionally, weak oil prices eased concerns about inflation.

Market snaps five-day rally as IT rout drags Nifty below 24,050
The domestic equity benchmarks ended sharply lower on Friday, snapping a five-session winning streak. The Nifty slipped below the 24,050 mark as a steep sell-off in IT stocks weighed on sentiment. Technology shares came under pressure after Accenture trimmed its revenue growth guidance and flagged weak demand visibility, raising concerns about global IT spending. Healthcare and pharma stocks, however, bucked the broader weakness. Investor sentiment was further affected by continued FII selling, weak global cues and rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Profit booking following the recent market rally also added to the downside pressure.
