The Indian rupee plunged to a historic low of ₹94.24 against the US dollar on March 27, 2026, pressured by surging global oil prices and कमजोर financial markets. The decline is largely driven by escalating Middle East tensions, which have pushed crude oil above $100 per barrel, increasing India’s import bill. Persistent foreign investor outflows and a stronger US dollar further weakened the currency. Equity markets also fell sharply, reflecting negative investor sentiment. Analysts warn the rupee may depreciate further if geopolitical tensions and energy price volatility continue, raising concerns over inflation and economic stability. (PC: Instagram)
