Zee Business Stock, Trading Guide: Indian stock markets today closed in the red taking cues from their US counterparts which continued to fall even on Thursday after the Federal Reserve hiked interest rates by 75 bps, the previous day. The move triggered surge in Dollar Index against top currencies including the Indian Rupee which fell to record all time lows today. The INR ended at 80.79 against the greenback.
Indian indices BSE Sensex and Nifty50’s decline could be attributed to the weakness in rupee even as the interest rate hike by the US Central Bank was in-line with the expectations.
