A slightly positive near-term rupee bias was associated with softer dollar conditions, dovish US monetary expectations, favourable global markets and improved foreign inflows, while geopolitical risks remained relevant. Domestic equity indices rose, foreign-exchange reserves increased, and fiscal-deficit data showed the central government's position against its full-year target.
