 "Rupee recovers by 13 paise against dollar in early trade")
The rupee recovered from a 30-month low by rising 13 paise to 68.34 against the dollar at the Interbank Foreign Exchange in early trade today on fresh selling of the US currency by banks and exporters.
Dealers said fresh selling of the American unit by exporters and banks supported the domestic currency but dollar's strength against other currencies overseas, limited the rupee's gain.
Moreover, a higher opening in the domestic equity market also helped rupee to strengthen against the dollar, they said.
Meanwhile, the benchmark BSE Sensex rose further by 308.81 points or 1.32% to trade at 23,690.68 in early deals.
