Rupee surges 52 points to close at 93.89 against US dollar
The domestic unit closed the session at 93.89 (provisional), registering a gain of 52 paise over its previous close
The Indian rupee has surged 52 points to close at 93.89 against the US dollar on Friday, following a softer US dollar and declining crude oil prices. Forex traders attributed the gain to a surge in domestic markets and concerns over a potential slowdown in AI spending. The rupee opened at 94.50 and reached an intraday high of 93.82 and a low of 94.50, before closing at 93.89, marking a gain of 52 paise over its previous close.
Analysts expect the rupee to maintain a positive bias due to strength in domestic markets and rising FII inflows, although tensions between Ukraine and Russia and attacks in the Middle East may limit sharp upside.
