Further, rupee gained strength on improved macroeconomic data • The rupee is expected to appreciate on a weak dollar and rise in risk appetite in domestic markets. Further, improved macroeconomic will continue to support rupee. However, sharp upside may be capped as US FOMC meeting minutes showed most policymakers are of the view that provided economic recovery remain broadly on track a gradual tapering process that concludes around middle of 2022 would likely be appropriate.
