Indian rupee, after appreciating to five week high level in previous trading session, clinched some more ground tracing gains in other Asian currency against dollar, however sharp plunge of local equities capped further upside of Indian currency. Indian currency after making a flat start, gained ground on sustained foreign funds inflow and increased selling of the American currency by exporters and banks in view of its weakness overseas amid reports of Russia and Ukraine agreeing to a ceasefire and continuing rise in local equities and sustained foreign funds inflows. On the global front, euro held steady versus the dollar on Thursday, having recovered from one-year lows set earlier this week as investors repositioned ahead of the European Central Bank policy review.
The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 60.42, stronger by 6 paise from its previous close of 60.48 on Wednesday. The currency has touched a high and low of 60.49 and 60.40 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 60.54 and for Euro stood at 79.54 on September 3, 2014.
