Rupee trades marginally higher against dollar

08 Apr 2013 Evaluate

Indian rupee appreciated against greenback on Monday amid dollar selling by some banks and exporters. Dollar’s strength against other Asian currencies and weakness in local equity markets restricted domestic currency’s up move to an extent. Meanwhile, as per the RBI Chief’s statement, India's current account deficit is unsustainable at its present level of about 5% of gross domestic product (GDP) and a deficit of about 2.5% of GDP will be sustainable. This statement hints that central bank will not change key policy rates in the next monitory policy, weighed on rupee.

The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 54.74, stronger by 7 paise from its previous close of 54.81 on Friday. The currency has touched a high and low of 54.83 and 54.67 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at Rs 54.88 and for Euro it stood at Rs 70.90 on April 5, 2013. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 57.01, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 83.5415. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
