Indian rupee extending previous sessions’ upbeat mood was trading stronger on the first trading session of the new week on account of increased dollar selling amidst strengthening of euro and fall in oil prices overseas following a key deal between world powers and Iran on its controversial nuclear programme that could help shrink country’s ballooning Current Account Deficit (CAD). Additionally, Reserve Bank of India’s conditional extension of deadline to bank’s special forex window till December 31, further bolstered sentiment. After getting a good response to the double foreign exchange swap windows aimed to shore up the forex buffer and prop up the rupee, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) allowed to the window uptill December 31 only for those banks which are negotiating loans or are close to closing the deal. Meanwhile, positive local equities also were adding to the positive milieu. On the global front, the dollar rose to a six-month high and the euro pushed to a new four-year peak against the yen in Asian trading on Monday, as investors positioned for yen weakness after speculators had bet on further yen declines.
