Rupee appreciates against dollar on Friday

17 May 2024 Evaluate

Indian rupee ended higher against the U.S. dollar on Friday on positive domestic markets and expectations of some fresh foreign inflows. Traders took some support with Federation of Indian Export Organisations (FIEO) President Ashwini Kumar’s statement that the country's merchandise exports are expected to increase about $60-70 billion to $500 billion by the end of FY25 on account of gradual improvement in global demand. In 2023-24, exports dipped over 3 per cent to $437.1 billion. He also said the country's services exports are also likely to reach $390-400 billion this fiscal. Besides, Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister (EAC-PM) member Sanjeev Sanyal said India will be a $4 trillion economy in 2024-25 and surpass Japan by early next fiscal to become the world's fourth largest economy. On the global front, dollar headed for its biggest weekly fall versus the euro in two-and-a-half months on Friday as signs of cooling inflation and a softening U.S. economy raised the prospect of rate cuts.

Finally, the rupee ended at 83.37 (Provisional), up by 13 paise from its previous close of 83.50 on Thursday. The currency touched a high and low of 83.50 and 83.32 respectively.
