Financial markets in India are bracing for a challenging week as the domestic currency and sovereign bonds face downward pressure from surging energy costs and geopolitical instability. The Indian rupee, which recently experienced its sharpest weekly decline in nearly four years, remains under strain as Brent Crude Oil prices hover around $105 per barrel. This inflationary pressure is exacerbated by fading diplomatic hopes between the United States and Iran, following the cancellation of high-level talks by Washington.
