Indian rupee extending the previous session somber mood was trading dull on Friday owing to the persistent demand for the American currency from banks and importers amid a firm dollar sentiment in overseas markets. Weak Indian equity markets coupled with that of regional currency have also spooked the sentiment of the Indian currency. However, some respite has come to the Indian currency in the way of euro which rose on Friday after slipping to an eight-month low the previous day, after Jiji news agency reported that Group of 20 officials were working toward an emergency statement, stirring hopes for action to soothe jitters over the euro zone's debt crisis.
The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 49.66, weaker by 10 paise from its previous close of 49.56 on Thursday. It touched a high and low of 49.90 and 49.52 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India's reference rate for the dollar stood at 48.82 and for Euro it stood at 66.10 on September 23, 2011. While, the RBI's reference rate for the Yen stood at 63.61 and the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 75.4814. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
