Indian Rupee Declines To Record Low Against U.S. Dollar
(RTTNews) - The Indian rupee lost ground against the U.S. dollar in late morning deals on Tuesday, amid a drop in regional shares, as well as surging oil prices on concerns over tightness in oil supply.

Comments from the United Arab Emirates' Energy Minister that the nation's oil production is reaching its maximum capacity lifted oil prices.
Political unrest in Ecuador and Libya, along with indications that Saudi Arabia and the UAE are operating near capacity raised supply worries.
