KUALA LUMPUR, 29 JULY 2026 —
The Indian rupee slumped to its weakest level in over a month on Tuesday, pressured by higher oil prices amid renewed hostilities. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is likely to intervene to contain losses, as the rupee breached the 96 level.
The weakening of the Indian rupee may have implications for Malaysia, particularly in terms of trade and investment between the two countries. As a major trading partner in the region, Malaysia may see fluctuations in the value of the rupee affecting the cost of imports and exports.
