The Indian rupee rose 43 paise to 93.98 per dollar on Friday, its strongest level since April, and gained 1.31% over seven trading sessions. The article attributes the rally to softer crude prices, foreign-investor buying, and political changes in the United States.
A stronger rupee lowers the local-currency cost of imported feed, energy, and other commodities; continued gains would push USDINR lower. Lower crude prices also reduce India’s import bill and can support the currency.
