Rupee plunges to record low of 87.67/$ amid tariff turmoil
Mumbai: US President Donald Trump's tariffs threat is casting a long shadow over Indian markets, pushing the rupee to a record closing low, and weighing on equities. The domestic currency ended Monday at 87.67 against the dollar - a new closing low - even as most Asian peers gained. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The move reflects the pressure Indian markets face amid fears of escalating trade penalties from the US. Late on Monday evening, Trump announced that he would be increasing the tariffs on India for Russian oil trades. Dealers and brokers feel that this could have an overhang over both forex and equity markets on Tuesday. "The rupee depreciated due to a negative trade environment," said K N Dey, a forex consultant who advises Indian corporates. "This is the rupee's weakest closing level ever. Even though other Asian currencies like the Chinese yuan were stronger, the rupee weakened. Flows are not coming in, and panic buying by importers is adding to the pressure. There's a lot of uncertainty in the market, and the pressure on the rupee will persist until there's clarity on the trade front with the US. " While the sensex rose 419 points to close above 81,000 - snapping a two-day losing streak - analysts attribute the rebound to gains in metals and auto stocks rather than a shift in underlying sentiment. Foreign institutional investors have already pulled billions of dollars out of Indian equities in recent weeks. Although inflows tied to the NSDL IPO provided momentary relief, they were quickly offset by renewed outflows. Last Thursday, it had touched an intraday low of 87.74.

China's Ant to exit Paytm in ₹3.8k cr deal
Mumbai: China's Ant Group will exit Paytm by selling its remaining 5.8% stake in the company through one or more block deals worth at least Rs 3,800 crore (about $434 million) on Tuesday, a term sheet showed. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Ant Group (formerly Ant Financial), one of the early investors of the Noida-based fintech is an affiliate of Chinese tech giant Alibaba Group. After this deal, Paytm will have no Chinese ownership. Ant Group will sell about 3.7 crore shares in Paytm at a floor price of Rs 1,020 per share, a 5.4% discount to Paytm's closing price of Rs 1,078 on the NSE on Monday. Paytm declined to comment. Ant Group has been paring its exposure to the fintech - it sold a 4% in the company through block deals worth over Rs 2,000 crore in May this year. In 2023, Paytm founder Vijay Shekhar Sharma had bought a 10.3% stake in the firm worth $628 million from Ant Group to shore up his stake in the company and cut Chinese ownership. Alibaba had exited Paytm through a block deal in early 2023. "There's been a trend among Indian companies to reduce Chinese shareholding given the broader national sentiment," said an analyst on condition of anonymity. Sharma holds about a 9% stake in the firm, recent shareholding data showed. Paytm, which had come under regulatory scrutiny last year following RBI's move to wind down its banking unit due to non-compliance, swung back to profit in the June quarter. Over the past couple of years, SoftBank and Berkshire Hathaway exited Paytm. "From an investment standpoint, Ant Group perhaps doesn't see the same potential in Paytm compared to its first investment," independent fintech consultant Parijat Garg told TOI.
