Rupee vs dollar: During the early trade in the Indian domestic market, on Tuesday, August 13, 2024, the rupee declined by 6 paise during early trade and it broke down against the dollar to 87.69. Foreign currency traders say that the Indian currency is trading in a very limited range due to the steps taken by the RBI to ensure that there is no drop in the rupee.

Strength in stock market
Domestic stock markets saw a boom on Tuesday. The BSE Sensex rose by 327.79 points to 80,563.38, while NSE Nifty-50 also closed at 24,599.55 with 112.15 points. International standard Brent crude was trading at $ 66.18 per barrel with a gain of 0.09 percent. According to the stock market data, foreign institutional investors (FII) purely sold shares worth Rs 3,398.80 crore.
Anuj Chaudhary, research analyst (commodity and currency) of Miraye Asset Sharekhan, says that due to the tariff war between India and the US, we estimate that the rupee will trade with a negative attitude. Continuous withdrawal of foreign institutional investors (FIIs) can also put pressure on the rupee. He said that the rupee can get support at a lower level due to weakness in US dollar and decreasing prices of crude oil.
