Indian rupee resumes downward journey

04 May 2012 Evaluate

Indian rupee fell for the third consecutive day to touch a new four-month low amid increased demand for the American currency from importers. Lower opening in the stock market also pressurized the local currency. However Reserve Bank of India (RBI) intervened in the foreign exchange market for the second consecutive day, but the effort was seen as inadequate nevertheless this intervention arrested the fall in the domestic currency to some extent. Since the start of this financial year, the rupee has lost five per cent against the greenback, mainly on account of rising concerns on the domestic economic outlook.

The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 53.73, weaker by 30 paise from its previous close of 53.43 on Thursday. It has touched a high and low of 53.78 and 53.64 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at Rs 53.23 and for Euro it stood at Rs 69.98 on May 3, 2012. While, the RBI's reference rate for the Yen stood at 66.36 the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 86.1415. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
