Indian Rupee ended higher against the US dollar on Wednesday boosted by robust buying in equity markets and inflow of foreign funds. Sentiments were positive as S&P Global Ratings in its report titled 'China Slows India Grows' has said India's GDP growth rate will rise to 7 per cent by 2026 compared to 4.6 per cent for China. It expects Asia-Pacific's growth engine to shift from China to South and Southeast Asia. Meanwhile, the rating agency ICRA’s report stated that the credit metrics of India Inc. are likely to show slight sequential improvement in Q3 FY2024, with interest coverage increasing to 4.5-5.0 times in Q3 FY2024 from 4.5 times in Q2 FY2024. On the global front, U.S. dollar slid across the board to hit a more than three-month low against its major peers on Wednesday, while the New Zealand dollar surged after its central bank suggested that more rate hikes could be in the offing.
Finally, the rupee ended at 83.32 (Provisional), stronger by 2 paise from its previous close of 83.34 on Tuesday. The currency touched a high and low of 83.33 and 83.28 respectively.
