Rupee off day’s low; yet continues to trade beyond 63/$ level

17 Dec 2014 Evaluate

Indian rupee after making a weak start, continued trading beyond psychological ‘63/$’ level on Wednesday in the wake of global turmoil in stocks and currencies. Risk appetite, which took a hit after Russia’s sharp increase in interest rates, reinforced concerns about the global economy at a time when oil prices slid to multi year low, also pressurized sentiment for Indian currency as this stoked fears of foreign investors pulling out their money from emerging markets’ assets. On Tuesday, FIIs sold cash shares worth Rs 1,247 crore, extending their selling streak to a sixth consecutive session. Nevertheless, the currency bounced back from day’s low on account of dollar sales, which in all possibility could be RBI’s intervention. On the global front, dollar nursed its losses in Asian trading on Wednesday, pulling away from lows hit overnight on skidding oil prices, Russia's financial crisis, and speculation that the Federal Reserve might take a more cautious tone on monetary policy.

The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 63.62, weaker by 8 paise from its previous close of 63.54 on Tuesday. The currency touched a high and low of 63.89 and 63.59 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 63.41 and for Euro stood at 79.00 on December 16, 2014. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 54.09, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 99.3055. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
