Indian mkt next week: Record lows for Re, oil key for bonds
Rupee would see new lows if global risk aversion continues. The Indian unit hit an all-time low of 57.32 versus the dollar on Friday, its second successive session of losses.


Any RBI intervention would be key; as would any potential measures after news the central bank had discussed with state-run oil firms about steering 50% of their dollar purchases via a single state-run bank to smoothen volatility in rupee.
