Rupee could be under pressure after delhi state election results


The results of the delhi state elections will be felt in the Union budget. Loosing and getting dumped are two different aspects. The BJP government for now was focused on improving the long term fundamentals of the nation and ignored the short term needs of the restless masses and the delhi state elections results are speaking for the same. In some respects this is also good for the nation as it has a message to every political party “perform or perish like BJP in Delhi”. 

Now I do not expect big gains for the rupee in the short term as well as medium term. There can be weakness but not big gains. The pace of global inflows in India could slow down a bit on reassessment of delhi state elections results. Monday US markets are closed. As the week progresses traders will start taking positions for Tuesday.
