Indian rupee strengthened against US dollar on Tuesday amid fresh foreign fund inflows and gains in domestic equities. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) remained net buyers in the capital market, putting in Rs 2,684.05 crore on Monday, according to provisional exchange data. Further, easing global crude oil prices due to impact of lingering US-China trade tensions on global growth against prevailing supply concerns following the attacks on Saudi Arabia's oil facilities, too supported the domestic currency. On the global front, the euro held losses after weak readings on German manufacturing rattled confidence, while the dollar found broad support as investors looked for signs of progress from US-China trade negotiations. US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said on Monday that he and US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer would meet with Chinese Vice Premier Liu He for trade talks in two weeks.
The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 70.77, stronger by 17 paise from its previous close of 70.94 on Monday.
