What Happened

The Indian rupee opened at 95.38 against the US dollar on Tuesday morning at the interbank foreign exchange market. This represents a decline of 8 paise from previous levels, a position the currency maintained throughout the early trading session.

Market analysts attribute the downward pressure on the rupee to the ongoing crisis in West Asia, which has contributed to rising crude oil prices and global market instability. While domestic equity market declines have further pressured the currency, support from foreign institutional investor inflows and interventions by the Reserve Bank of India have helped prevent a more significant depreciation.

Background

The Reserve Bank of India manages the country's foreign exchange reserves and intervenes in the market to maintain stability in the rupee's value.
