    Rupee depreciation reflects crude oil pressures, geopolitical uncertainty, safe-haven dollar demand, widening trade deficit, and rising inflation
    The rupee depreciated against the US dollar amid higher crude oil prices, renewed geopolitical concerns and increased demand for safe-haven dollar assets. Rising crude prices increased India's dollar-denominated import burden and contributed to foreign exchange outflows and pressure on the domestic currency. India's exports increased year-on-year in June, but the trade deficit widened as imports, particularly crude oil imports, rose. Wholesale price inflation also increased, while net direct tax collections recorded year-on-year growth, primarily reflecting higher corporate tax collections.
