Indian rupee recovered and trading positive against dollar in the late morning session on increased foreign fund flows. Firm local equities and dollar selling by some banks and exporters supported domestic currency to an extent. Moreover, positive expectations from the Union Budget, which is due on February 28, also favoured rupee’s northward journey. Meanwhile, euro’s gain against the American currency in the overseas market also supported the rupee.
The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 54.08, stronger by 10 paise from its previous close of 54.18 on Monday. The currency touched a high and low of 54.21 and 54.04 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at Rs 54.28 and for Euro it stood at Rs 72.44 on February 18, 2013. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 57.79, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 83.7200. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
