Indian Rupee Fall: On Tuesday, December 2, the second trading day of the week, the prices of the Indian rupee are once again registering a record decline. The Indian rupee has slipped against the dollar to its all-time low of 89.85 per dollar.
The rupee had created the record of its all-time low level yesterday and broke it the very next day i.e. today. Interestingly, this ongoing fall in the rupee is happening at a time when India has recently shown excellent GDP growth results for the second quarter of the financial year 2025-26. The country’s GDP growth rate is 8.2 percent. This decline in rupee is not a good sign for the Indian economy.
