The Indian rupee recovered by 10 paise to Rs 44.30 against the US dollar in early trade today on fresh selling of dollars by banks and exporters in view of dollar weakness in the overseas market.
The rupee resumed higher at Rs 44.30/31 per dollar at the Interbank Foreign Exchange, as against the last close of Rs 44.40/41 per dollar, and hovered in a range between Rs 44.30 and Rs 44.34 during the morning session before quoting at Rs 44.32/33 per dollar at 1030 hours.

In the Tokyo market, the dollar fell against most major rivals in early trade after back-to-back speeches by US President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner revealed no progress on talks crucial to raising the US debt ceiling and preventing a default.
