Indian rupee ended flat on Monday as a firm American currency in overseas markets offset the gains from weak crude oil prices. Traders were worried after credit rating agency, India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra) in its latest report has predicted that the recent surge in container freight rates by 4x (YoY basis), if sustained, could affect the business operations, EBITDA margins and working capital of exporters during FY25. On the global front, the yen held steady on Monday, with sentiment still fragile following the Japanese currency's best weekly rally since late April on the back of shifting interest rate expectations and a stock-market sell-off.
Finally, the rupee ended flat with its previous close of 83.73 on Friday. The currency touched a high and low of 83.74 and 83.70 respectively.
