Indian rupee strengthened against the US dollar on Friday tracking positive domestic equities as investors took some solace as the fresh US sanctions on Russia neither included removing Russia off from SWIFT messaging system nor had any measure that put restrictions on Russian energy exports. Additional support also came as Chief Economic Advisor (CEA) V Anantha Nageswaran stated that the Indian economy is now poised for recovery but high crude oil price is a cause for concern. On the global front, euro was struggling to recover from its plunge the previous day in early Asia trading on Friday, after Russia's invasion of Ukraine had hit the common European currency and sent investors scrambling to the safety of the dollar, yen and Swiss franc.
The partially convertible currency is trading at 75.20, stronger by Rs 40 paise from its previous close of 75.60 on Thursday. The currency touched a high and low of 75.32 and 75.18 respectively.
