Rupee recoups most of the losses after a weak start

27 Jan 2014 Evaluate

Indian rupee, after getting a weak start, has recouped most of its losses and was trading a bit changed on Monday. Prevailing caution ahead of RBI’s monetary policy review on January 28, 2014 and weak sentiment of local equities, dragged the Indian currency to two months low level in early deals. While street still is towards no hike in policy rates, RBI chief Raghuram Rajan's comments will be closely watched for future rate trajectory after his recent hawkish remarks.

Nevertheless, some dollar buying by state-banks around the two month low level has led to recovery of local unit. Additionally, dollar’s weakness too is restricting further slide of currency. In the global market, dollar slipped to a seven-week low against the yen on Monday as a sell-off in emerging market currencies late last week prompted investors to seek shelter in the safe-haven Japanese currency.

The partially convertible is currently trading at 62.69, almost unchanged from its previous close of 62.68 on Friday. The currency has, so far, touched a high and low of 62.84 and 62.60 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 62.17 and for Euro stood at 85.08 on January 24, 2014. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 60.14, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 103.3817. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
