A better dollar overseas also weighed on the rupee while capital inflows capped the rupee fall, said forex dealers.
At the Interbank Foreign Exchange (Forex) market, the domestic currency commenced higher at 60.10 a dollar from last close of 60.12. It moved in a tight range between 60.08 and 60.20 before concluding at 60.14, a fall of two paise or 0.03 per cent.
The rupee had gained one paise on June 25 and seven paise on June 24.
The dollar index, an indicator of six major global rivals, was up by 0.04 per cent.
"Domestic currency opened on a stronger note tracking its Asian peers as US dollar was seen tumbling against the basket of major currencies soon after the GDP numbers were released for US, which showed sub-par growth for the first quarter. This was seen putting pressure on the dollar Index," said Abhishek Goenka, Founder and CEO, India Forex Advisors.
