How appreciating dollar & Deprecating Rupee effect Indian Stock market
The appreciation of the U.S. Dollar (USD) and depreciation
of the Indian Rupee (INR) can have significant effects on the Indian stock
market, influencing different sectors in various ways:
1. Impact on Export-Oriented Sectors (Positive)
- IT
     & Software Services: Companies like Infosys, TCS, and Wipro earn a
     significant portion of their revenue in USD. A stronger dollar means
     higher rupee revenue when converted, boosting their profitability.
- Pharmaceuticals:
     Many Indian pharmaceutical companies export their products. A weaker rupee
     increases the value of their dollar-denominated earnings.
- Textiles
     & Auto Ancillaries: Exporters in these sectors benefit from better
     margins when the rupee weakens.
2. Impact on Import-Oriented Sectors (Negative)
- Oil
     & Gas: India is a major importer of crude oil, which is priced in
     dollars. A depreciating rupee increases the cost of oil imports, raising
     input costs for companies and inflation in the economy.
- Aviation:
     Fuel costs constitute a large portion of expenses for airlines. A weaker
     rupee increases the cost of aviation fuel, leading to lower margins.
- Consumer
     Durables & Electronics: Many consumer products or their components are
     imported. A weak rupee makes imports costlier, affecting profit margins or
     increasing prices for consumers.
3. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs)
- Capital
     Outflows: A stronger dollar may lead to capital outflows as FIIs find U.S.
     assets more attractive due to higher returns and safety. This often leads
     to selling pressure in the Indian equity markets, especially in large-cap
     stocks.
- Volatility:
     Increased outflows can result in market volatility, as foreign investment
     forms a significant portion of Indian stock market liquidity.
4. Inflationary Pressure
- A
     depreciating rupee can increase the cost of imports (oil, raw materials),
     leading to higher inflation. High inflation can result in tighter monetary
     policies (higher interest rates), which may negatively affect equity
     valuations, especially in interest-sensitive sectors like banking and real
     estate.
5. Impact on Current Account Deficit (CAD)
- A
     weak rupee worsens the current account deficit because imports become more
     expensive. A higher CAD can weaken investor sentiment, affecting equity
     markets.
