The dollar index, which gauges the greenback's strength against a basket of six currencies, fell by 0.08% to 97.17
The Indian rupee eked out a marginal 4 paise gain at 75.05 against the U.S. dollar in morning trade on January 28, tracking positive opening in domestic equity markets.
However, strong American currency and elevated crude oil price level restricted the rupee's further recovery.
Forex traders said geopolitical tensions, sustained foreign fund outflows and hawkish U.S. Fed stance dragged down the local unit, while positive domestic equities supported the local unit in opening deals.

According to recent Foreign Trade Performance Analysis data, India’s overall exports remained resilient in late 2025, even as traditional sectors faced sharp declines. While shipments of gems and jewellery to the U.S. plummeted, the overall figures were bolstered by a massive 237% surge in telecom exports, particularly smartphones. Data shows that Indian exporters are aggressively diversifying their portfolios. By deepening ties with existing partners and discovering new alliances, India is replacing lost U.S. sales with a more diversified set of trade partners
