Rupee ends strong on record high close of local equities on Friday

31 Oct 2014 Evaluate

Indian rupee, after making a good start, went on adding ground and ended stronger on Friday tailing record high close of local equities. The sentiment also turned upbeat after International rating agency, Moody’s, in its report titled 'Recent policy changes to support growth acceleration,'  termed recent measures by the government coupled with those unveiled by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on the economic, fiscal and financial fronts as ‘credit positive’ for the economy.  However, further appreciation of Indian currency was limited on account of month-end dollar demand from oil importers, while weakness of other Asian currencies on account of Bank of Japan's surprise monetary stimulus also ate into some gains of Indian currency. The Bank of Japan has decided to increase the pace at which it expands base money to about 80 trillion yen per year, up from a previous target of 60-70 trillion yen. It also decided to increase its purchases of government debt by about 30 trillion yen and extend the average duration of JGB holdings to around 10 years and decided to triple its purchases of exchange-traded funds and Japan real estate investment trusts.

Finally, the rupee ended at 61.36, stronger by 9 paise from its previous close of 61.45 on Thursday. The currency touched a high and low of 61.44 and 61.33 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 61.40 and for Euro stood at 77.18 on October 31, 2014. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 55.28, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood 98.0624. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
