Rupee gives away all the early gains on local equities’ losses

06 Feb 2014 Evaluate

Indian rupee, after opening substantially stronger, has erased most of its early gains and is trading flat on Thursday on account of dip in local equities that are trading with loss of close to half a percent. Indian currency, earlier in trade, appreciated after the central bank late on Wednesday stated that the government had cancelled its previously deferred bond sale of Rs 15,000 crore, which hinted at latter’s confidence of achieving fiscal deficit target of 4.8 percent of GDP for 2013-14. Nevertheless, currency’s downfall was curbed on hopes that local unit would appreciate below the perilous ‘62/$’ as the government's cash position is set to improve further due to gains from the ongoing mobile spectrum auction. On the global front, the yen hovered near multi-month highs against the dollar and euro early on Thursday, highlighting a cautious mood among investors still fretting about the recent selloff in emerging markets.

The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 62.52, little changed from its previous close of 62.53 on Wednesday. The currency touched a high and low of 62.54 and 62.38 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 62.45 and for Euro stood at 84.35 on February 5, 2014. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 61.58, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 102.0099. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
