Rupee ends lower against dollar on Monday

11 May 2020 Evaluate

Indian rupee ended weaker against the US dollar on Monday, on increased demand for the greenback from importers and banks. Investors remain concerned with Former chief economist of World Bank -- Kaushik Basu’s statement that India needs a large fiscal stimulus as the country faces big risk of slowdown in the economic growth on account of COVID-19. Basu suggested that the government may need monetisation by the Reserve Bank of India. Market participants were also concerned about the impact of spiking coronavirus cases on the economy. However, losses remain capped as some support came with report that the government is working on several initiatives, such as preparation of huge land pools, to attract potential investors to India amid the coronavirus-triggered turbulence. On the global front, dollar rose against most of its major peers on Monday as moves by the United States and other countries to re-open their economies raised hopes for a quicker global recovery from a deep recession triggered by the coronavirus health crisis.
