The rupee concluded the week on a slightly lower note, settling at 82.82 (provisional) against the US dollar on Friday. This dip was attributed to the uptick in crude oil prices in the global market and heightened demand for the American currency from importers. However, the local currency found support from a rally in equity markets and robust domestic macroeconomic data, which helped mitigate the decline. 

As of March 2nd, 2024, 1 Euro is equivalent to 89.78 Indian Rupees. Analysts have identified a range for the EUR to INR, reflecting a minimal change of 0.11% compared to the previous week. Despite minor fluctuations, the Euro continues to hold its ground against the Indian Rupee.
