Indian rupee erased its initial gains and trading lower against greenback in the late morning session on Wednesday on the back of sustained increase in demand for dollar from importers. The US dollar weakened against other Asian currencies after China swung to a monthly trade surplus, which restricted local unit’s losses. Meanwhile, FM's statement to Moody's that the country's growth story is credible and is long lasting also supported the rupee. However, volatility in domestic equity markets is pressurizing rupee to an extent.
The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 54.15, weaker by 2 paise from its previous close of 54.13 on Tuesday. The currency touched a high and low of 54.18 and 54.05 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at Rs 54.27 and for Euro it stood at Rs 70.99 on May 07, 2013. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 54.84, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 84.3193. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
