Rupee Declines to 94.48 Against US Dollar Amid Geopolitical and Economic Factors
The Indian rupee depreciated 15 paise to 94.48 against the US dollar in early trade on Monday, influenced by a strong American currency and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. While steady debt inflows and easing crude oil prices provided some support, concerns over potential US Federal Reserve rate hikes and regional instability limited gains. Ongoing US-Iran talks in Switzerland aim to reduce conflict, but uncertainties remain, keeping the rupee volatile near key support and resistance levels.
