The Indian rupee closed Friday at 90.1950 per dollar, marking its lowest close in two weeks and a second consecutive weekly decline.

Market participants are closely watching the Reserve Bank of India's response and intervention strategies to manage the rupee's movement, especially around the 90 per dollar mark.
