Rupee holds steady at 95.44 amidst RBI intervention

Wait 5 sec.

The Indian rupee remained stable on Thursday, closing near its previous level. Dollar sales by the Reserve Bank of India kept the local unit within a tight range. Demand from maturing forwards and debt outflows added pressure to the currency. Traders observed a narrow trading band, anticipating further Reserve Bank of India intervention. One-month implied volatility fell to its lowest point since early March.
