The Indian rupee has recently shown volatility, touching a near two-week high due to broad dollar weakness and an overall rally in Asian currencies. Despite this temporary rise, the rupee ended higher after choppy trading sessions, supported by a broader Asian forex rally. However, it is projected to underperform compared to its regional peers amid the ongoing dollar decline. Notably, the rupee has been identified as the worst performer in Asia for the month of August, despite a slight increase, as interventions by the Indian central bank are believed to be limiting any significant gains.
