India-US trade deal: Rupee depreciation could slow down
09-Feb-2026

With the much-awaited US-India deal getting announced during the weekend, the Indian rupee’s depreciation is expected to slow down, said experts. However, the extent of recovery remains a question. When US President Donald Trump imposed a total of 50% tariffs on Indian goods, the currency took a major hit by falling more than 7%. In the last couple of weeks it has recovered from a record low of 92.02, but further appreciation will depend on foreign inflows and the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) intervention.
