Rupee dives 59 paise against US dollar on spike in crude oil prices
At the interbank foreign exchange, the rupee opened at 86.25 against the greenback and traded in the range of 85.92-86.25 before closing at 86.11, up 59 paise from its previous close. Brent crude, the global oil benchmark, rose sharply by 7.27 per cent to USD 74.40 per barrel in futures trade. Mumbai, Jun 13 (PTI) The rupee plummeted 59 paise to 86.11 against the US dollar on Friday due to a spike in global oil prices and a firm dollar amid rising tensions in the Middle East following Israel's attack on Iran's nuclear sites. The local unit had settled at 85.52 on Thursday. Weak domestic equity markets and FII outflows further contributed to the fall in the local unit, forex traders said. 'The rupee fell to a low of 86.25 before recovering to 85.92 before ultimately closing at 86.07. It has taken one country's military strike on another to bring home the fragility of markets,' Anil Kumar Bhansali, Head of Treasury and Executive Director, Finrex Treasury Advisors LLP, said. 'The RBI did support the rupee… oil prices were a concern as an increase of USD 10 increases trade deficit by USD 12 billion and CPI inflation by 50 bps,' he said. In the domestic equity market, the 30-share BSE Sensex tanked 573.38 points to settle at 81,118.60, while Nifty dropped 169.60 points to 24,718.60. The dollar index, which gauges the greenback's strength against a basket of six currencies, rose 0.33 per cent to 98.24. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) offloaded equities worth Rs 1,263.52 crore on a net basis on Friday, according to exchange data. 'FPIs continued to remain sellers of equity and buyers of the US dollar, while oil companies bought dollar on rising oil prices. Iran has closed its airspace, affecting our airline routes already hit by the closure of the route by Pakistan. 'For Monday, we expect the rupee to trade in a similar range of 85.75-86.50 as we await India's trade deficit data to be released,' he added.

Gurgaon man loses Rs 35k in Hibox stock trading app scam
Gurgaon: A city resident fell victim to the Hibox stock trading app scam that defrauded nearly 40,000 investors of Rs 500 crore last year. Mukul, a 21-year-old from Dhani Kumbha, Pataudi, invested Rs 35,696 from June 28, 2023, to August 2, 2023, after being promised double returns. While initial withdrawals were processed, the app later restricted access to both investments and profits on Aug 2 last year. The app, which promised guaranteed returns of 1-5% daily, amounting to 30 to 90 per cent returns monthly, withheld funds citing technical issues. Mukul, an accountant at a private company in Mumbai, said he sought to secure substantial investments and profits for a promising future. "I got to know about this app through a friend who assured me of exorbitant profits. Initially, I invested Rs 300 and earned a profit on the same day. By making small investments, I also withdrew profits of up to Rs 3,000. I reinvested this money in the app. When I invested Rs 35,696 after gaining some confidence in Aug last year, the app restricted my withdrawals," he said, adding that he also repeatedly contacted a helpline number provided on the app. "On some occasion they said there was a technical glitch, on other server issue. Following this, I lodged a complaint on the cyber portal," he said. "My friend who told me about the app also lost around Rs 1 lakh." Explaining the app's modus operandi, Mukul said that there were levels of investments. "Initially, people could only invest amounts up to Rs 5,000. As they started investing more frequently, they were able to unlock higher levels of investment which had assurances of higher returns. People also benefited by referring the app to others," he said. An unidentified individual was booked in connection with the case on Thursday by cyber police, Manesar, under Section 318(4) (cheating) of BNS and an official stated that further investigation into the fraud was ongoing by Gurgaon cyber police. Meanwhile, a 30-year-old Chennai resident, Sivaram, the main accused in the investment scam, was arrested by Delhi police last year and Rs 18 crore were seized from his bank account. Multiple influencers including Youtuber Elvish Yadav and comedian Bharti Singh were also summoned by Delhi police last year after over 600 complaints were received against them for promoting the app. According to the complaints, influencers including Saurav Joshi, Abhishek Malhan, Purav Jha, Elvish Yadav, Bharti Singh, Harsh Limbachiya, Lakshay Choudhary, Adarsh Singh, Amit, and Dilraj Singh Rawat promoted the app and lured people into investing through Hibox.
