Indian Rupee Hits Record Low
The Indian Rupee hit a record low of 91.03 per dollar on Tuesday, which made the Indian stock market go down.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) stepped in and helped the Rupee gain back some strength the next day.
However, experts say the Rupee might stay weak because foreign investors are taking their money out of India.
This is happening because there is uncertainty about a trade deal between India and the US.
The RBI is okay with the Rupee being a bit weaker for now because it can help Indian exports.
The Rupee's future depends on when the India-US trade deal is finalized and if foreign investors start putting money back into India.
The Indian Rupee hit a record low of 91.03 per dollar on Tuesday, December 16, 2025.
The RBI intervened and helped the Rupee gain over 1% to 90.0963 the next day.
FIIs have been withdrawing funds from India, contributing to the Rupee's decline.
The uncertainty around the India-US trade deal is a significant factor in the Rupee's weakness.
Experts suggest that the Rupee may remain weak until there is clarity on the trade deal and FIIs start investing again.
