The Indian rupee fell to its lifetime low on Monday, extending a rough patch ‌as ⁠the ⁠raging conflict in the Middle East kept oil prices elevated, raising economic risks for India while also ⁠sapping capital ‌flows.

The rupee fell to 92.62 ⁠per dollar, eclipsing its previous low of 92.4750 hit last week.

Brent crude oil prices have climbed about 40% since the ‌Iran War began. The conflict has since sent ⁠shockwaves throughout global markets as energy importing economies grapple with the most severe supply disruption in decades.
