Indian rupee was trading marginally in green in morning trade on Monday after scaling its three week highs in the last session. The domestic currency however made a soft start of the day on increased demand for the US currency from importers to meet their month end requirement. The dollar’s gains against other currencies too weighed on the rupee; however a higher opening in the domestic equity market capped the losses and helped the currency to move higher. In the global markets, the euro fell to its lowest in nearly a year against dollar after ECB President Mario Draghi stated that central bank is prepared to respond whatever possible, should inflation drop further.
The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 60.44, stronger by 3 paise from its previous close of 60.47 on Friday. The currency touched a high and low of 60.53 and 60.41 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 60.43 and for Euro stood at 80.35 on August 22, 2014. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 58.29, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 100.2391. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
