USDINR has gone through dramatic ups and downs in last 6 years. Let’s have a look
Here’s the weekly Chart of USDINR back in 2007-2010 period
Source: Chartalert.com
In 2007,
everything was going India’s way. USDINR was trading at 39. FIIs were
pumping money like there is no tomorrow. But 2008 subprime turbulence
disrupted the momentum pretty badly. Equity market started selling off
and FIIs were on SELL mode. It did impact currency market and INR
depreciated from 39 to 43 by middle of the year in 2008. Nothing
catastrophic. People were still bullish on India. Though Technically,
USDINR was above 100 week moving average; and INR looked vulnerable. BUT
then came Lehman crisis – and it just broke the back of both currency
and equity markets. USDINR zoomed from 100 week ma and 42 all the way to
52 by March 2009. It was a 24% depreciation in less than 9 months. That
was first major depreciation India saw after a long long time. The
depreciation peaked with Ben Bernance green shoots remarks. Early
recovery in Global markets helped INR appreciate from 52 to 49. The INR
got another bullish dose with UPA Government coming back to power with
more majority. INR from 52 in March 2009 appreciated to 47 by end May
2009; and 44 by March 2010. Lehman crisis looked like a small bad dream.
Again India was back and things were looking up. Every Heads of state
around the world were making India visit with large business delegation
with Obama visit scheduled in Nov 2010. Reality Check: INFLATION, CORRUPTION, BAD GOVERNANCE (This is INDIA)
The above
weekly chart captures the dramatic depreciation of USDINR between July
2011 and July 2012. It was a depreciation of about 30% in 12 months. And
YES this was worse than Lehman and it was real. FORMATION OF TRIANGLE PATTERN:
Then,
between July 2012 and May 2013: a triangle pattern was getting formed.
Though it was a continuation pattern but lots of folks were turning
optimistic on reform measures announcement by Government. Nobody knew
which way it would break. Ben Bernanke Taper remarks helped and USDINR
broke out on the upside and had a blow out move from 57 to 69 ~ a move
of 22% in less than 3.5 months. But with
change of guard at RBI and delay in QE tapering, INR has pulled back
from panic lows of 68-69. But the big question: Can the reversal
sustain? ROAD AHEAD USDINR
has pulled back substantially from panic levels of 68-69. But with two
major risk events ahead: 1. Indian elections; and 2. US Fed Exit from
QE, one cannot be very optimistic on INR. At this point of time, we can
assume that near term panic is behind us but a higher base at 57-60 has
been set for USDINR. On panics, we don’t know where USDINR can go.
Remember, INR is in Long Term Bear Market which means it still is Sell
on Rally.

Technically the stock was facing a lot of resistance around 30 for last many months and with 3-4 attempts.
Today the stock has finally crossed above 30-31 band and seems headed to 35 in the short term and maybe even towards 45.
The dividend yield also is pretty interesting and a decent history too.
