Rupee softens 6 paise against US dollar
Besides, dollar's strength against other currencies overseas also weighed on the rupee, but a higher opening of the domestic equity market capped the losses.
On Friday, the rupee continued its stellar rally against the dollar, surging 24 paise to end at a fresh 20-month high of 64.28 amid escalating geo-political trouble involving the US and Russia.
Meanwhile, the benchmark BSE Sensex rebounded by 124.71 points, or 0.41 per cent, to 29,831.32 in early trade.
