• Indian Rupee holds steady in Wednesday’s Asian session. 
• Firmer Fed rate cuts bets and robust USD sales weigh on the pair, but higher oil prices might cap its downside. 
• The Fed rate decision will be in the spotlight on Wednesday. 

The Indian Rupee (INR) trades on a flat note on Wednesday after climbing to a month-high of 83.75 in the previous session. The downtick of the pair is pressured by the rising expectations of a deeper Federal Reserve (Fed) rate cut and robust US Dollar sales. Nonetheless, the extended recovery of crude oil prices might undermine the local currency and help limit USD/INR losses. 

Later on Wednesday, all eyes will be on the Fed interest rate decision, which is widely expected to cut the rate in its September meeting. Fed officials will also release a Summary of Economic Projections, or ‘dot-plot’ after the policy meeting, which could give insight into just how much the US central bank plans to cut over the next year. The expectation of the jumbo rate cuts might exert some selling pressure on the Greenback in the near term.
