> The Indian rupee had its worst monthly drop in nearly three years, closing July at 87.595 per dollar after touching a five-month low of 87.74. The fall followed Trump's threat of a 25% tariff on Indian exports plus an unspecified penalty starting August 1, alongside persistent portfolio outflows.
