Rupee prolongs appreciating streak on higher local equities

06 Dec 2013 Evaluate

Indian rupee, prolonging its appreciating streak for third consecutive session, was trading stronger on Friday, tailing gains on local equities, which were trading upbeat for second straight session on likelihood of a strong showing by the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as per exit polls, in the state polls results on Sunday, widely viewed as an endorsement for its prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, who is perceived as business-friendly. Further, rupee also strengthened tracking euro gains after the European Central Bank gave no fresh indication that it would ease policy anytime soon. However, some dollar demand from state run banks on behalf of oil importers capped further appreciation of the Indian currency. In the global front, while Asian currencies were trading mostly firm, dollar hovered near a five-week low versus a basket of currencies on Friday, with its near-term fortunes riding on whether key U.S. jobs data will bolster the case for the Federal Reserve to start scaling back its monetary stimulus.

The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 61.61, stronger by 16 paise from its previous close of 61.77 on Thursday. The currency has touched a high and low of 61.70 and 61.59 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 61.68 and for Euro stood at 84.06 on December 05, 2013. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 60.44, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 101.0782. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
