Indian rupee, bouncing from a week low level, appreciated substantially on Friday tailing the recovery of local equities after S&P, in a huge sentiment booster for the economy, revised India's credit outlook up to 'stable' from 'negative', while maintaining country’s rating at ‘BBB-‘. However, month-end dollar demand from oil importers and strength of dollar index against the basket of major currency capped gains of local unit. On the global front, dollar held near a four-year high against a basket of currencies on Friday, fueled by the biggest yield advantage over the euro in nearly 15 years as the Federal Reserve contemplates hiking interest rates.
Finally, the rupee ended at 61.15, stronger by 19 paise from its previous close of 61.34 on Thursday. The currency touched a high and low of 61.61 and 61.01 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 61.57 and for Euro stood at 78.44 on September 26, 2014. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 56.45, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood 100.4239. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
