Meanwhile, subdued performance of Asian counterparts, which shrugging off the surprise rate cut, also added to the pessimistic milieu.

The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 55.31, weaker by 37 paise from its previous close of 54.94 on Thursday. It has touched a high and low of 55.31 and 55.15 respectively.
