The Indian rupee strengthened to around 95.4 per dollar, extending its rally for another session to a two-week high as sentiment improved on easing crude oil prices and supportive remarks from the Reserve Bank of India. Support for the rupee increased after Brent crude prices fell below $100 per barrel for the first time in over two weeks amid optimism that the US and Iran are moving closer to a peace agreement. Sentiment was further boosted after Sanjay Malhotra stated that the RBI would do “whatever is required” to ensure orderly forex market movements, adding that the rupee appears undervalued. He also said the central bank has around $700 billion in reserves to curb volatility. However, gains in the rupee were partly limited by persistent inflation concerns after India’s state-owned fuel retailers raised petrol and diesel prices for the fourth time in May to offset losses stemming from higher costs linked to the Iran conflict.
