The India rupee is poised for a subdued trading session on Tuesday, held in a tight band as central bank intervention offsets sustained corporate hedging demand. The currency settled at 95.7450 against the dollar on Monday, maintaining a tight range over the last two weeks. Persistent central bank defense has helped stabilize the currency despite ongoing pressures from elevated Brent Crude Oil prices.
