Rupee strengthens to fresh eleven-month high on Monday

19 May 2014 Evaluate

Indian rupee, prolonging its appreciating streak, strengthened to a fresh eleven month high on Monday on expectations of continued robust foreign buying in domestic shares and debt after Narendra Modi-led BJP swept the elections. Overseas investors, who have been the key reason for the current market rally, purchased equities worth Rs 3,635 crore (net) in the cash market on Friday, their biggest one-day investment this year. However, the Indian currency has limited room for further appreciation on account of RBI’s frequent intervention, who off-lately is seen buying dollars for shoring up forex reserves and preventing  sharp up-run of the local unit. On the global front, euro got off to a relatively steady start on Monday after two punishing weeks as investors waited for fresh data before deciding on whether bears still hold the upper hand.

The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 58.43, stronger by 40 paise from its previous close of 58.83 on Friday. The currency has touched a high and low of 58.45 and 58.38 respectively.  The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 58.86 and for Euro stood at 80.71 on May 16, 2014. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 57.97, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 98.8217. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
