Indian Rupee Rises Slightly on RBI Intervention Ahead of Inflation Data
The Indian rupee ended slightly higher at 95.33 per U.S. dollar, supported by ongoing interventions from the Reserve Bank of India amid Middle East tensions. State-run banks' dollar sales helped limit losses, though concerns over rising oil prices and upcoming inflation data from India and the U.S. restrained gains. The central bank has actively engaged in the foreign exchange market throughout August to stabilize the currency after recent lows. Market participants await inflation reports that could influence future monetary policy decisions.
