Indian rupee though recovered considerably on Wednesday from its 21-month low reached in last session on selling of the American currency by exporters and banks, but still ended past the 64 per dollar mark. The domestic currency was supported by the strength in the local equity markets and dollar's weakness against other currencies overseas. In the global markets, the euro was under pressure on Greece concern, while the dollar held firm against a basket of major currencies after solid US housing data bolstered the case for the US Federal Reserve starting rate hikes as early as in September.
Finally the rupee ended at 64.11, 16 paise stronger from its previous close of 64.27 on Tuesday. The currency touched a high and low of 64.19 and 64.09 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 64.11 and for Euro stood at 72.16 on June 17, 2015. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 51.91, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 100.3184. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
