INR crashes to new record low beyond 92.60 mark; Positive equities fail to cap losses
The Indian rupee crashed to fresh lifetime lows on Wednesday, weighed down by a stronger greenback and sustained FII outflows. The rupee slumped 27 paise to close at a record low of 92.67 (provisional) against the US dollar on Wednesday. Elevated crude oil prices in global markets amid intensifying conflict in West Asia further dampened sentiments. Indian shares ended higher for a third consecutive session but failed to cap losses in the counter. The Sensex rose 633 points to close at 76,704 and the Nifty gaining 197 points to settle at 23,778. At the interbank foreign exchange, the local unit opened at 92.42 against the greenback and traded in the range of 92.41-92.48 for most of the session before losing ground at the fag end to close at its record low.
INR settles at new lifetime low as soaring oil prices dampen sentiments
The Indian rupee declined 14 paise to settle at an all-time low of 92.42 (provisional) against the US dollar on Tuesday, pressured by rising crude oil prices and sustained outflow of foreign funds amid the West Asia crisis. A positive trend in domestic equity markets also helped the domestic currency at the lower level, even as investors remained watchful of the US Federal Reserve's interest rate decision. Indian stock markets closed significantly higher for the second consecutive session, driven by gains in auto and metal sectors despite volatility. The Sensex jumped 568 points (0.75%) to close at 76,071, while the Nifty 50 added over 172 points (0.74%) to end at 23,581, rebounding after recent sharp losses. At the interbank foreign exchange, the local unit opened at 92.35 and hit the lowest intra-day level of 92.47 against the greenback. The unit finally ended at a new lifetime low of 92.42.
Iran war deepens correction risk: Is Nifty headed toward the 21,000 zone?
Indian equities remain under pressure amid West Asia tensions, with Nifty slipping sharply from recent highs. Analysts see the 21,000–22,000 zone as a potential bottom, backed by technical patterns, valuations, and Fibonacci levels. While short-term rebounds are possible, weak momentum, FII outflows, and rising oil prices suggest volatility may persist, prompting investors to adopt a phased, long-term approach.
INR hits fresh lifetime low of 92.47 during intraday moves
The Indian rupee ended the day almost flat on Monday to settle at 92.28 per dollar. The currency hit a fresh record low of 92.47 during intraday moves amid surging crude oil prices and incessant withdrawal of foreign funds triggered by geopolitical uncertainties. The local currency, however, resisted a sharp fall backed by a significant recovery in domestic equity markets amid hopes of the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Indian benchmark indices rebounded strongly, closing higher after a three-day slump. The BSE Sensex jumped by 938.93 points (1.26%) to settle at 75,502.85, while the NSE Nifty 50 gained 257.70 points (1.11%) to close at 23,408.80. At the interbank foreign exchange, the local unit opened at 92.44 and touched its lowest-ever intra-day level of 92.47 against the greenback during the session.
