Indian Rupee came under pressure to plunge to five month level and depreci-
ated around 21 paise to end at 67.95 against the US dollar on Wednesday.
The currency depreciated on account of dollar demand from banks and im-
porters. Further, country’s trade deficit widens to ten month high level, weak
domestic market sentiments along with outflow of foreign funds kept pres-
sure on the Indian Rupee. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) have sold
$441.40 million in debt and bought $6.2 billion in equity till date this year.
However, sharp downside in the currency was cushioned due to favourable
wholesale and retail inflation from the country which was released a day ear-
lier. Indian Rupee moved in the range of 67.608 to 68.120 in Tuesday’s trade.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) fixed reference rate for the dollar was seen at
67.7791 and Euro stood at 72.8422 as on 16th

to $3.5 billion. Export grew 9.59% due to higher exports of gems & jewellery, engineering goods and readymade garments. Imports ex-
panded 8.11%.
US Dollar Index rose around 0.18 percent in Wednesday’s trading session due to rise in risk aversion in global markets which led to increase
in demand for the low yielding currency. However, sharp upside in the currency was capped as a result of unfavourable economic data
from the country.
US Core Producer Price Index (PPI) plunged by 0.2 percent in last month from a rise of 0.2 percent in September. Capacity Utilization Rate

mained unchanged at 63-mark in November.

ments along with estimates of unfavourable economic data from the region kept pressure on the currency.

along with unfavourable economic data from the country led to negative movement in the currency.
UK’s Average Earnings Index remained unchanged at 2.3 percent in September. Claimant Count Change grew by 4,200 to 9,800 in October
with respect to 5,600 in September. Unemployment Rate fell to 4.8 percent in September from 4.9 percent a month ago.
