Rupee appreciates on Monday; gives a thumbs up to Interim Budget 2014-15

17 Feb 2014 Evaluate

Indian rupee, after opening on a relatively weaker note and bouncing off the perilous ‘62/$’ level, appreciated on Monday tailing the gains of local equities on account of optimistic Interim Budget 2014-15, whereby Finance Minister P. Chidambaram presented a rosy picture of the economy, in which he bettered his 4.8% fiscal deficit target for the current fiscal year to 4.6%, revised current year GDP growth to 4.9% and pegged gross borrowing target for the coming financial year at the lower end of the expectation. Additionally, dollar’s weakness also added to the Indian currency’s strength. On the global front, dollar slipped to its lowest level since the turn of the year against a basket of major currencies on Monday as soft U.S. economic data stood in contrast to better figures out of the euro zone and China.

Finally, the rupee ended at 61.85, stronger by 9 paise from its previous close of 61.94 on Friday. The currency touched a high and low of 62.08 and 61.83 respectively. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) reference rate for the dollar stood at 61.94 and for Euro stood at 84.94 on February 17, 2014. While, the RBI’s reference rate for the Yen stood at 60.97, the reference rate for the Great Britain Pound (GBP) stood at 104.0194. The reference rates are based on 12 noon rates of a few select banks in Mumbai.
