Indian Rupee Strengthens Amid Falling Oil Prices and RBI Intervention
The Indian rupee strengthened for the third consecutive session, closing around 95.82-95.88 against the US dollar amid easing geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran and falling crude oil prices. The Reserve Bank of India intervened by selling dollars to support the currency. Gains were limited by a firm US dollar index ahead of the Federal Reserve's policy decision. Domestic equity markets showed mixed trends, with foreign institutional investors both selling and buying equities on different days. Analysts remain cautious due to volatile oil prices and upcoming US economic data.
