Key Factors Impacting INR Today:

• Rupee Strengthens Against USD: The Indian Rupee opened stronger at ₹85.87 against the US Dollar, appreciating by 17 paise compared to Friday’s close of ₹86.05. This marks a continuation of its sharp recovery, with the rupee witnessing its highest single-day gain in over two years on Friday.
• Dollar Index at Multi-Month Lows: The Dollar Index was trading 0.08% higher at 99.71 as of 9:10 AM IST, its lowest level since April 2022. Despite the marginal uptick today, the index has plunged 3.1% recently amid recession fears and geopolitical concerns, limiting the Dollar's strength.
• Support from Tariff Relief Hopes: US President Donald Trump’s remarks on possible temporary tariff exemptions for auto parts and consumer electronics have boosted sentiment, especially with the 90-day delay potentially increasing exports. This has triggered expectations of increased forex inflows and further strengthening of the Rupee towards ₹85.25 in the near term.
