Rupee exchange-rate pressure intensified as crude oil, regional uncertainty and weaker equities constrained the local currency in early trade.
Foreign-exchange market conditions placed the rupee under pressure against the US dollar amid West Asia uncertainty, higher crude oil prices, and weaker domestic equity markets. Foreign institutional investor inflows and Reserve Bank of India intervention supported the rupee and limited further depreciation.

Fuel price transparency highlights allegations over excise duty, consumer retail costs, and profit disclosures by state-run oil marketing companies.
Fuel pricing, central excise duty and profits of state-run oil marketing companies are examined through allegations that retail fuel prices and tax policy imposed excessive costs on consumers while generating substantial company profits. The criticism contrasts high crude-price periods with lower retail prices and lower excise duty against a later period in which reduced crude prices were allegedly not passed through to consumers. Profit-margin disclosure is also raised as a transparency issue, with parliamentary information described as covering oil prices, global crude prices and company profits.

Trusted service-call numbering requires verified utilities and logistics entities to use dedicated numbers exclusively for transactional and service communications.
The 1601-series is introduced for verified utilities, courier and logistics entities making service and transactional voice calls. Numbers must be allocated directly to eligible entities, not intermediaries or aggregators, following verification by telecom service providers and an undertaking of exclusive use. Promotional voice calls are prohibited on this series and remain associated with the 140-series. The framework separates these calls from the 1600-series reserved for regulated financial-sector and government-to-citizen communications, supporting consumer recognition of legitimate calls and reducing impersonation risks.
