The Indian rupee fell to a fresh all-time low against the US dollar on Tuesday. It slipped to 90.82, marking its fourth straight session of decline. The fall came as India and the US are yet to finalise a trade deal. Market experts said strong demand for dollars and continued foreign investor outflows added pressure on the rupee.

Traders said uncertainty over trade talks and global market pressures may keep the rupee weak in the near term. (PC: Reuters)
