Moreover, weak dollar against some major basket of currencies too supported the rupee. Though, a lower opening in the domestic equity market, capped the gains. On the global front, the dollar hovered just below a seven-month peak against a basket of major currencies early on Tuesday, having consolidated its payrolls-inspired rally in a subdued session overnight.
