Currency experts attributed the rupee’s gains to exporters “bringing their proceeds into the country at a rapid pace”. This, he explained, was causing a decline in the dollar’s demand.
They foresee the rupee making further gains in the future, expecting the interest rate to remain stable or reduce.
The central bank's expected announcement to maintain the policy rate also positiovely impacted the local currency's value.
