USD vs INR: Rupee rebounds over 1%, jumps most in seven months on RBI support

December 17, 2025

The Indian rupee rebounded sharply on December 17, rising over 1% to 90.0963 against the US dollar, its largest gain in seven months. This recovery came as the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) intervened to sell dollars, supporting the currency after it had hit record lows in previous sessions. Market sentiment had been affected by foreign outflows and delays in an India-US trade deal.
