Meanwhile, in the early trading session on Thursday, the Indian rupee witnessed a decline of 5 paise, reaching 82.86 against the US dollar. This movement was attributed to a downward trend in the domestic stock market.

According to forex analysts, several factors contributed to this depreciation, including the robustness of the US dollar, the withdrawal of foreign funds, and the persistently high crude oil prices in the global market, all of which negatively impacted investor confidence.

At the onset of trading in the interbank foreign exchange, the rupee commenced at 82.84 against the dollar, marking a slight decrease from its previous closing value. The currency then dipped further to touch an early low of 82.86.

In comparison, the rupee had concluded Wednesday's trading session at 82.81 against the US dollar.
