The Indian rupee weakened marginally against the US dollar on Monday on account of fresh demand for the American currency from importers. The sentiments were under pressure with industrial production contracting to four-month low of 0.4 per cent in December, due to a sharp decline in production of consumer goods. However, a higher opening in the domestic equity market capped the losses. Meanwhile, traders remained on sidelines ahead of Consumer Price Index (CPI) to be released later today. On the global front, the dollar rose against yen on Monday, on relief that US President Donald Trump set aside tough campaign rhetoric over security and jobs in a smooth meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, with no mention of currency policy.
