Rupee strengthens on Wednesday

20 Mar 2019 Evaluate

Resuming its winning streak, Indian rupee ended higher on Wednesday against the greenback after a day of halt on the back of massive liquidity push in form of strong foreign fund inflows in March. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) put in Rs 2,132.36 crore on a net basis on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) governor Shakthikanta Das has stated the recent decision to inject rupee liquidity through long-term foreign exchange swap has received quite well response from market. In an unprecedented move, the Central Bank on March 13 announced a US dollar/rupee buy/sell swap auction worth $5 billion on March 26 to inject rupee liquidity for longer duration. This is first time that such a tool has been deployed by the RBI, which has been normally using OMOs to inject liquidity into the system. But the targeted liquidity will reach the system only next fiscal year when the government starts spending. However, gains remain capped as investors braced for caution ahead of the outcome of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting later in the day.

Finally, the rupee ended at 68.83, 13 paise stronger from its previous close of 68.96 on Tuesday. The currency touched a high and low of 69.17 and 68.72 respectively. The reference rate for the dollar stood at 68.86 and for Euro stood at 78.14 on March 20, 2019. While the reference rate for the Yen stood at 61.72, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 91.28.
