Rupee resumes appreciating streak after RBI’s latest liquidity measures

08 Oct 2013 Evaluate

Indian rupee, after taking a breather in the previous session, resumed its three consecutive sessions’ appreciating streak on Tuesday, a day after Reserve bank of India after a review of evolving liquidity conditions and in continuation of calibrated withdrawal of exceptional measures undertaken since July 2013, reduced the marginal standing facility (MSF) rate by a further 50 basis points from 9.5% to 9.0% with immediate effect, a factor which led to rally at Dalal Street. Besides, the Apex Bank also decided providing additional liquidity in the markets through term repos of 7-day and 14-day tenor for a notified amount equivalent to 0.25% of net demand and time liabilities (NDTL) of the banking system through variable rate auctions on every Friday beginning October 11, 2013. However, some dollar demand from banks and importers were limiting the further appreciation of Indian currency. On the global front, the dollar eased off a fresh two-month low against the yen in early trade on Tuesday and remained not far from an eight-month low against a basket of major currencies, as a continuing U.S. fiscal standoff kept investors on their toes.

The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 61.67, stronger by 12 paise from its previous close of 61.79 on Monday. The currency has touched a high and low of 61.82 and 61.62 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 61.77 and for Euro it stood at 83.83 on October 7, 2013. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 63.62, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 99.0640. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
