Indian rupee opened higher for the third straight session on Monday, but is now trading marginally lower against dollar amid volatility in regional stocks. Euro's gains against dollar after European leaders agreed to shore up the regions troubled banks was unable to cap domestic currency’s losses. Local unit pared all early gains as the euro gave up some of its gains on the back of worries that the debt crisis is still far from over. However increasing current account deficit with higher crude oil prices, gold imports and declining export growth put severe pressure on the rupee.
The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 55.74, weaker by 7 paise from its previous close of 55.67 on Friday. It has touched a high and low of 55.75 and 55.52 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at Rs 56.30 and for Euro it stood at Rs 70.90 on June 29, 2012. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 7.9080, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 88.0616. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
