What Happened

The rupee fell over the week against the dollar, but RBI’s intervention and state bank dollar sales limited the decline. Middle‑East tensions and India’s heavy oil import reliance add risk to the currency’s stability.

  • Weekly rupee depreciation amid Middle‑East tensions
  • RBI and state banks intervened to curb losses
  • India imports ~90% of oil, heightening supply risk

Why It Matters

Currency moves affect import costs, inflation, and foreign‑exchange debt servicing, influencing overall economic health.
