The Indian Rupee fell to a record low of 93.83 against the US Dollar on March 23, extending its recent decline after the steepest single-day drop in four years. The currency weakened amid sustained foreign investor outflows, with nearly $9 billion exiting Indian equities in 2026 so far. Elevated crude oil prices Brent above $110 per barrel have increased import pressures, further straining the rupee. Offshore markets indicate continued weakness, while the Reserve Bank of India’s short dollar position has neared $100 billion. Analysts warn that persistent global volatility and energy costs could keep the rupee under pressure in the near term. (PC: News18)
