Prolonging its somber mood to the fourth consecutive session, Indian rupee dived to its lowest in over 5 weeks on Friday as the slump in global equities which mirrored in local shares, sparked the fears of foreign fund outflows. Meanwhile, broad based gains of the US currency amidst crashing regional counterparts on persistent worries that the world's largest economy was heading into a double dip recession coupled with fears over intensifying debt crisis in the Euro zone, spooked the sentiment for the local currency too.
The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 44.80 weaker by 25 paise from its previous close of 44.55 on Thursday. It touched a high and low of 44.85 and 44.71 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India's reference rate for the dollar stood at 44.41 and for Euro it stood at 63.55 on August 04, 2011. While, the RBI's reference rate for the Yen stood at 55.93 and the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 72.6984. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
