Indian rupee, after making a flat start, recouped some ground and was trading with strength on Monday on the back of gains in non-deliverable forwards. However, strength of dollar against basket of other major currencies and plunge of local equities is limiting further uptrend of Indian currency. However, fresh demand from importers for the American unit could put pressure on the rupee going further in the day. On the global front, dollar hovered near a two-year high against a basket of currencies on Monday, underpinned by expectations the U.S. Federal Reserve will start its rate-tightening cycle sooner than expected.
The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 60.76, stronger by 7 paise from its previous close of 60.83 on Friday. The currency touched a high and low of 60.86 and 60.74 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 60.80 and for Euro stood at 78.46 on September 19, 2014. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 55.73, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 100.0615. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
