Rupee recovers 19 paise from all-time low to close at 91.71 against U.S. dollar
The rupee rebounded from its all-time low levels and gained 19 paise to close at 91.71 (provisional) against the U.S. dollar on Tuesday (January 27. 2026), on decline in U.S. dollar index and India-EU FTA negotiations.
Forex traders said the rupee recovered marginally as traders rushed to cover broad dollar weakness.
Moreover, the deal over India-EU FTA boosted domestic market sentiments. However, rising commodity and crude oil prices capped sharp gains.
At the interbank foreign exchange, the rupee opened at 91.82 and lost ground to touch an intra-day low of 91.90 against the dollsr. The domestic unit settled for the day at 91.71 (provisional), registering a gain of 19 paise from its previous close.

"We expect the rupee to trade with a slight positive bias as India-EU FTA may boost domestic market sentiments. Weakness in the U.S. dollar index may further support the rupee," said Anuj Choudhary, Research Analyst, Mirae Asset ShareKhan.
However, selling pressure from FIIs and ongoing geopolitical tensions may pressure the rupee at higher levels.
"The U.S. has threatened Canada with 100% tariffs and to raise tariffs on South Korea to 25% from 15% currently. USD/INR spot price is expected to trade in a range of 91.30 to 92," Mr. Choudhary added.

The deal has been termed as the "mother of all deals" as it will create a market of about 2 billion people.
