Rupee Soars on Crude Price Slump, Dollar Retreats
The Indian rupee has strengthened against the US dollar, rising by 28 paise to trade at 96.25.
This gain is largely attributed to a decline in crude oil prices, which have fallen to $92.74 per barrel in futures trade.
The decrease in crude prices can be linked to easing tensions in West Asia following the US and Iran's decision to pause strikes against each other.
'He's giving it a little bit of room,' said Mike Waltz, the US ambassador to the United Nations, referring to the US President Donald Trump's stance on talks with Iran.
