Indian rupee encouraged by the RBI governor Raghuram Rajan’s statement that any volatility due to global headwinds such as Greece crisis and hike in interest rates in the US won't have any sharp impact on the rupee, surged to its over one month high on Friday. The rupee was strong since morning and strengthened with good show of the local equity markets. The domestic currency was also boosted by weak data in the US overnight that diminished hopes of kick start of rate hikes by the US Fed this calendar. On the global front, the dollar fell against a basket of major currencies hurt by softer than expected US employment data.
Finally the rupee ended at 63.43, 8 paise stronger from its previous close of 63.51 on Thursday. The currency touched a high and low of 63.48 and 63.35 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 63.39 and for Euro stood at 70.33 on July 3, 2015. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 51.49, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 98.9426. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
