The Indian Rupee is facing a severe downturn, recently breaching the ₹90–93–95 mark against the US Dollar. Since January 2026, it has depreciated by 4.1%, earning the title of Asia’s worst-performing currency.

Several factors drive this decline. Expectations of sustained high interest rates by the US Federal Reserve have strengthened the dollar, triggering significant outflows from foreign portfolio investors. Additionally, the escalating West Asia crisis has sent crude oil prices soaring. As a major importer, India faces a ballooning import bill, further straining the currency.

While the Thai Baht has also slid by 3.5%, the Chinese Yuan has defied the trend, appreciating by 1.4% to become the region's top performer. Unless oil prices stabilize or global volatility subsides, the Rupee remains under significant pressure.
