Rupee strengthens against dollar on Monday

17 Apr 2017 Evaluate

Indian rupee strengthened against the US dollar on Monday due to weakness in US greenback against major global currencies. However, foreign fund outflows amid increased demand for the American currency from importers and a weak domestic equity market capped some gains. Meanwhile, investors are awaiting the Wholesale Price Index (WPI)-based inflation data later in the day for further cues. Forex market had remained shut on Friday on account of ’Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Jayanti’ and ‘Good Friday’. On the global front, the dollar dipped to a five-month low against the yen on Monday as rising tensions over North Korea kept the safe-haven Japanese currency in demand.

The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 64.36, stronger by 5 paise from its previous close of 64.41 on Thursday. The currency touched a high and low of 64.44 and 64.2850 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 64.31 and for Euro stood at 68.61 on April 13, 2017. While the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 58.97, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 80.82. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
