05 Oct 2012 Evaluate

Indian rupee appreciated further against the dollar and was trading near 6 month’s high on Friday, owing to big-ticket reforms approved by the Cabinet on Thursday. Government’s decision to increase diesel prices to set the fiscal house in order also boosted the sentiments and now investors are waiting to see the implementation of those tough decisions. Strong foreign fund inflows after the Cabinet approved 49% foreign direct investment in insurance and pension funds sectors also supported the local unit. Meanwhile, new reforms are expected to give central bank room to reduce borrowing costs, boosting inflows and the rupee. Domestic currency’s gains were also aided by an increase in global risk appetite subsequent to encouraging economic data from the US.
