Rupee appreciates against dollar on Tuesday

16 May 2023 Evaluate

Indian rupee ended higher against the American currency on Tuesday, as the American currency retreated from its elevated levels. Easing crude oil prices also supported Rupee. Traders overlooked report that India’s exports contracted by 12.7 per cent, third month in a row, to $34.66 billion in April even as the trade deficit reduced to a 20-month low of $15.24 billion. The decline in exports is mainly on account of poor demand in India’s key destinations - the Europe and the US. Besides, commerce ministry data showed India's exports to the UAE contracted by 22 per cent to $2.23 billion as against $2.86 billion in April. India and the UAE have operationalised a comprehensive free trade agreement since May 1 last year. On the global front, dollar on Tuesday sat just below the previous day's five-week high, while the pound dropped sharply then recovered after a rise in Britain's jobless numbers suggested fewer Bank of England rate increases could be needed in coming months to bring down inflation. 

Finally, the rupee ended at 82.21 (Provisional), stronger by 10 paise from its previous close of 82.31 on Monday. The currency touched a high and low of 82.29 and 82.16 respectively.
