EUR/INR consolidates as buyer support emerges above ₹106.1408 support
Euro vs Indian Rupee (EUR/INR) is trading at ₹106.5401, recording a modest upward move for the session. The pair is currently positioned above its key short- and medium-term moving averages, though it remains capped by longer-term technical resistance.
Highlights
- India is considering restrictions on overseas remittances under the Liberalised Remittance Scheme due to fast rupee depreciation.
- Possible regulatory action aims to limit capital outflows as pressures mount on India’s foreign exchange market.
- EUR/INR trades higher on short- and medium-term momentum with projected consolidation from ₹105.983 to ₹107.0728 over the next two to three days.
Regulatory scrutiny increases as rupee depreciation spurs RBI concerns
Concerns about the Indian rupee's rapid depreciation have prompted the Reserve Bank of India to weigh possible restrictions on overseas money transfers via the Liberalised Remittance Scheme, according to Asian News Channel. This consideration reflects mounting pressure on India's foreign exchange market and raises the prospect of regulatory steps to limit capital outflows. Such actions could alter demand dynamics for the euro relative to the rupee, introducing near-term uncertainty for EUR/INR positioning.
Mixed technical signals emerge as resistance and buyer strength persist
On the technical front, EUR/INR is trading above both the MA-20 and MA-50 on the H1 chart, while remaining below the MA-200 on the daily timeframe. Immediate support is defined by the Ichimoku Kijun at ₹106.1408. The expected price band for the next sessions is set between ₹105.983 and ₹107.0728. Among indicators, MACD suggests a strong sell, but ADX and Bull/Bear Power display buyer strength. RSI and CCI both signal on the buying side, while Stoch RSI is overbought, indicating stretched short-term momentum. Awesome Oscillator remains neutral, reflecting hesitation in the current setup.
Upside bias dominates as consolidation expected within key price band
Looking ahead over the next two to three trading days, EUR/INR is expected to consolidate within the ₹105.983 to ₹107.0728 volatility band. There is a high probability of further upside in the short term, with limited chances of a downside move. A push above ₹107.0728 would signal a potential bullish breakout, while a close below the immediate support at ₹106.1408 would increase short-term downside risks for the pair.
Earlier, analysts noted that persistent bearish pressure and negative technical signals were weighing on EUR/INR performance. However, recent regulatory considerations and technical shifts suggest the pair may face heightened short-term volatility, making a decisive move above ₹107.0728 or below ₹106.1408 crucial for the next directional trend.
