GK and monthly revision
Rupee hits record low, RBI intervention averts fall past 92
The Indian rupee hit a record low against the US dollar, pressured by dollar demand linked to the maturity of non-deliverable forward positions and corporate hedging. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) likely intervened to prevent the rupee from falling below the psychologically significant level of 92 against the dollar. This is significant for exam preparation as it highlights the impact of global factors on the Indian economy and the role of the central bank in managing exchange rate fluctuations.
