The Indian rupee opened stronger at 93.17 against the US dollar on Wednesday, April 15, up by 21 paise from its last close.
This boost comes after a market holiday and is mainly thanks to falling oil prices and renewed optimism around possible peace talks between the US and Iran.

Brent crude prices dropped 4.6% to $94.40 a barrel, with markets feeling hopeful about diplomatic efforts between the US and Iran, talks that could ease global oil supply tensions.
