The chart plots USDC's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from Token Times's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 USDC ≈ ₹105.16 (about $0.9991), down 0.0% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 10.4% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
