Rupee ends stronger along with equities

29 Dec 2016 Evaluate

Indian rupee ended substantially stronger against dollar on Thursday, mainly on account of weakness of dollar index against the basket of other major currencies. The sentiments remained on upbeat note with Minister of State for Finance Arjun Ram Meghwal’s statement that once the entire process of cash ban is completed, consumption and investments will pick-up rapidly. According to him, the move will increase the tax base and improve gross domestic product (GDP) by 2 percent. Besides, a better trend in the domestic equity market also supported the local currency. On the global front, dollar slipped to a two-week low against the yen on Thursday, mirroring a fall in U.S. bond yields as weaker-than-expected economic data weighed on the greenback and waning risk appetite boosted Japan's safe-haven currency.

Finally, the rupee ended at 68.10, 15 paise stronger from its previous close of 68.25 on Wednesday. The currency touched a high and low of 68.23 and 68.05 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 68.12 and for Euro stood at 71.21 on December 29, 2016. While the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 58.41, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 83.41.The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
