 "Rupee off highs ahead of release of Fed minutes")
The rupee is trading at 60.03/04 versus its Monday's close of 60.11/12, off the session highs of 59.80 levels, in cautious trading before the US Federal Reserve releases minutes from its March meeting.
"The market is cautious, though it is currently assuming the FOMC minutes to be less hawkish than the press conference in March," a senior trader with a foreign bank said.
Traders also said some defence-related dollar demand pushed USD/INR higher.
The Sensex is up 0.5% and will be watched for cues on foreign fund flows.
