Indian rupee ended marginally higher against dollar on Monday, owing to dollar sale by banks. Traders took some support as Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has said it will inject Rs 15,000 crore into the financial system in the month of June 2019. It will infuse liquidity through purchase of government bonds via the auction route. Some support also came after international rating agency S&P Global Ratings said that the landslide victory for Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led BJP in the general election is likely to improve the flow of foreign capital for corporates in India. However, upside remain capped with the RBI’s data showed that after rising for the past few weeks, the country's foreign exchange reserves declined $2.057 billion to $417.998 billion in the week to May 17 on account of a fall in foreign currency assets.
Finally, the rupee ended at 69.51, 2 paise stronger from its previous close of 69.53 on Friday. The currency touched a high and low of 69.62 and 69.34 respectively. The reference rate for the dollar stood at 69.60 and for Euro stood at 77.97 on May 27, 2019. While the reference rate for the Yen stood at 63.55, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 88.30.
