Indian markets remain volatile amid rising global tensions and elevated crude oil prices near $110 per barrel, which are adding to inflation concerns. The rupee has strengthened, supported by RBI liquidity measures and tighter forex rules. Meanwhile, the 10-year bond yield has climbed to 7.1%, marking its sharpest weekly rise since May 2022. Investors are now closely watching the RBI policy decision on April 8, where the central bank is expected to hold rates but may act to stabilise yields and currency.
