Rupee appreciates marginally against dollar

25 Jan 2021 Evaluate

Indian rupee ended marginally higher against dollar on Monday as banks and exporters continued to sell the US currency amid persistent capital inflows. Some support came with former deputy chairman of Planning Commission Montek Singh Ahluwalia’s statement that the country's economy, which contracted in the first two quarters of the current fiscal, has started recovering at a gradual pace. However, upside remain capped with report that Indian and Chinese troops came face-to-face at Naku La in North Sikkim last week amid the tense border standoff between the two sides in eastern Ladakh. Meanwhile, foreign portfolio investors (FPI) remained net buyers to the tune of Rs 18,456 crore so far in January as global liquidity led to continued investment in emerging markets. On the global front; rebound in global market sentiment put new momentum behind the dollar decline on Monday, while riskier currencies strengthened, as optimism about U.S. President Joe Biden's stimulus plans took precedence over the impact of COVID-19.

Finally, the rupee ended at 72.94, 3 paise stronger from its previous close of 72.97 on Friday. The currency touched a high and low of 72.96 and 72.89 respectively. The reference rate for the dollar stood at 73.03, and for Euro stood 88.86 on January 22, 2021. While the reference rate for the Yen stood at 70.49, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 100.05.
