Indian rupee weakened against the US dollar on Friday, following a strong demand for the greenback amid sustained foreign capital outflows. The dollar strengthening against other currencies overseas as the European Central Bank (ECB) pledged to leave interest rates unchanged until mid-2019. On the global front, the yen slid against the dollar in Asia after the Bank of Japan kept interest rates unchanged, in line with market expectation, even as the US is set to release an updated list of Chinese products to target with tariffs.
The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 68.00, weaker by 37 paise from its previous close of 67.63 on Thursday. The currency touched a high and low of 68.0350 and 67.8900 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 67.68 and for Euro stood at 79.92 on June 14, 2018. While the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 61.52, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 90.68. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
