The Indian rupee recoiled on Wednesday from 2-month lows hit in the previous session on Monday, on the back of firmer regional peers and a higher opening in the stock market. The forex markets remained closed on Tuesday on account of 'Buddha Purnima'. However, the gain of the domestic unit could be limited on concerns of cash dollar shortage and strong defence-related payments. Since the dollar borowing cost is high for corporates because of cash dollar shortage. Meanwhile, the euro was steady against the dollar and the yen on Wednesday after recovering from recent lows, since wariness over sovereign debt problem in Europe made investors nervous about piling up euro positions.
The partially convertible Rupee is currently trading at 45.08, stronger by 7 paise from its previous close of 45.15 on Monday. It has touched a high and low of 45.09 and 45.04 respectively.
