Expect rupee to trade within 74.90-75.80 range vs dollar: Kotak Securities' Anindya Banerjee

Anindya Banerjee, DVP, Currency and Interest Rate Derivatives at Kotak Securities, said a combination of rising oil prices, US bond yields and the dollar index impacted the rupee. "The RBI should not be bothered much as volatility has been quite low over the past 14 months. The weaker rupee offers the RBI an opportunity to lock into greater profits for its long positions in the forward and futures markets. We expect the USD-INR (pair) to trade with an upward bias within a range of 74.90-75.80 in the spot market," he said.

Rupee ends at lowest level since July 2020

India imports 80 percent of its oil needs and high prices result in increased imported inflation and have a spiralling impact on the prices across other sectors.
