Rupee Likely To Open Lower On Risk-off Moods - HDFC Securities 

Indian rupee expected to open slightly higher from yesterday’s level as market participants believes growth driven budget announcement which will attract more flows in the country. From the bond market perspective, heavy borrowing and fiscal number weigh on bond markets but the focus will shift from union budget to monetary policy meeting scheduled on February 5. 10- year yields rose 15bps to 6.06% on Monday; most traded 5.77% 2030 yield rose 13bps to 6.08%

Union Budget: The economy seems on the mend and the nominal GDP growth of 14.4% assumed in the budget for 2021-22 looks impressive. However, some the fizz in the number comes from the extraordinarily low denominator of 2020-21 due to the 7.7% contraction in real GDP

The deficit target of 6.8%for 2021-22 (way higher than analyst forecasts) and indeed the amendment of the FRBM act so that the deficit finally comes below 4.5 per cent only in 2025-26 is perhaps as bold as expansionary fiscal policy can get

February month started on negative note for rupee as it fell 7 paise to 73.03 a dollar. However, the momentum remains on bullish side following continuation of foreign fund inflows in domestic market. The lower level buying from the central banks restricting the gains while consolidation dollar index around 91 keeping the rupee in tight range.
