News Topical, Digital Desk : Rupee vs Dollar: The rupee continues to fall against the US dollar. Today, Wednesday, January 21, the Indian rupee weakened further and reached its lowest level ever. In early trading, it fell by 23 paise to reach 91.20 against the US dollar. This means that now you will have to spend Rs 91.20 to buy one dollar. This is a new all-time low level so far. A day before this, i.e. on Tuesday, the rupee had already closed at an all-time low of 90.97 with a fall of 7 paise. This continuous decline in the rupee against the dollar has increased the concern of investors.

Increasing pressure on the rupee

On one hand, foreign investors are withdrawing from the Indian stock market. On the other hand, the stalled trade deal between India and the US continues to exert pressure. Given these difficult circumstances, importers fear the rupee will fall further. Consequently, they are holding dollars in reserve. The market's cautious outlook regarding risk is responsible for this new decline in the rupee. The situation is such that while the rupee fell by 5% in 2025, the first month of the new year hasn't even ended, the rupee has fallen by 1.5%.
