Market Overview - Indian equity markets experienced a volatile session, with the Nifty 50 decreasing by 32.85 points, or 0.13%, to close at 25,169.50, and the BSE Sensex falling by 57.87 points, or 0.07%, to 82,102.10, reflecting cautious investor sentiment amid currency weakness and mixed sectoral performance [1]. Currency Impact - The Indian rupee reached a record low of 88.62 against the U.S. dollar before settling at 88.75, driven by concerns over a recent U.S. visa fee hike and ongoing outflows from foreign institutional investors. A weaker currency raises concerns about import-led inflation but is also seen as beneficial for India's IT and metals exporters in the long term [2].
