			The rupee depreciated 39 paise to an all-time low of 82.69 against the US dollar in early trade on Monday as elevated crude oil prices and risk-averse sentiment among investors weighed on the local unit.</p>

			Moreover, a negative trend in domestic equities and firm American currency sapped investor appetite, forex traders said.</p>

			&quot;The double whammy of higher US rates and higher crude prices is back to haunt the rupee. While the RBI was able to defend the rupee successfully through the last round of simultaneous stress on current and capital accounts by spending its reserves, this time around things are likely to be different,&quot; IFA Global Research Academy said in a note.</p>

			&quot;After having exhausted a significant portion of its reserves, RBI seems concerned about the burn rate of reserves and appears to be spending them very judiciously. This has resulted in the rupee adjusting and aligning itself with fundamentals and its peer group currencies,&quot; IFA Global Research Academy&#39;s note said.</p>
