Indian rupee, after ending flat in the previous, gained significant traction to trade with strength against the dollar on Wednesday. Firm trade of the Indian equity markets, amidst sustained buying of dollars, buoyed the sentiment of Indian currency. Further, revival of risk taking capacity, which was apparent across Asian markets currencies, also aided the appreciation of the Indian currency. The local unit derived major impetus from the drive of the common currency, which reclaimed substantial ground on short-covering, after strong growth data from Australia was weighed against Spain’s warning of losing access to credit markets.
The partially convertible currency is currently trading at day’s high level of Rs 55.56, stronger by 7 paise from its previous close of 55.63 on Tuesday. The currency after opening at Rs 55.38 touched a low of Rs 55.37. The Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at Rs 55.56 and for Euro it stood at Rs 69.50 on June 5, 2012.
