What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Indian rupee declined to a one-week low, ending at 95.9550 per dollar, after a jump in oil prices and limited progress in U.S.-Iran talks raised inflation concerns. The Iran conflict has pressured emerging market currencies due to elevated oil prices and strained fiscal health. In response, state-run banks, likely acting for the Reserve Bank of India, sold dollars to limit losses.
