Indian Rupee strengthened against the US dollar on Wednesday on account of firm domestic equities tracking gains in Asian peers as reports of Chinese workers returning to factories and a drop in new Corona virus cases enthused investors. Meanwhile, market participants are awaited data on consumer inflation and industrial production scheduled to be released later in the day for more clarity on the state of the economy. Though, rising crude prices, foreign fund outflows and strengthening of the American currency weighed on the domestic unit and restricted its up move. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) sold equities worth Rs 209.39 crore on Tuesday, exchange data showed.
The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 71.24, stronger by 4 paise from its previous close of 71.28 on Tuesday.
