RBI reportedly defending rupee as oil prices climb

Original: Indian central bank likely shielding rupee as US-Iran impasses lifts oil prices, traders say

Traders say the Reserve Bank of India is intervening to shield the rupee as a deadlock between the United States and Iran pushes oil prices higher. Higher crude costs widen India's import bill and pressure the currency, prompting speculation the central bank is selling dollars to limit depreciation.

Why now: Tensions between the US and Iran have lifted oil prices, raising concerns about pressure on the rupee and possible central bank intervention.
