Rupee appreciates 4 paise to 83.48 against US dollar in early trade

The rupee was trading in a narrow range against the American currency in early trade on Tuesday and appreciated 4 paise to 83.48 against the US dollar amid a positive trend in domestic equities. Forex traders said the strength of the American currency in the overseas market, elevated crude oil prices and foreign fund outflows weighed on the local unit and restricted the up move. At the interbank foreign exchange market, the local unit opened at 83.48 against the greenback, registering a rise of 4 paise from its previous close. On Monday, the rupee settled 7 paise lower at 83.52 against the US dollar.

Amid muted equities trend, Rupee opens flat against dollar in early trade

The rupee opened on a flat note against the US dollar in the morning session on Thursday, amid a muted trend in domestic equities. Forex traders said the rupee is trading in a narrow range as rising crude oil prices, strong American currency, and sustained foreign fund outflows dented sentiments. At the interbank foreign exchange, the rupee opened at 83.13 against the dollar and touched an initial high of 83.11 and an early low of 83.14 against the greenback. On Wednesday, the rupee had settled at 83.12 against the US dollar. "Against the given odds favouring the rupee, challenges persist primarily due to the strengthening US Dollar, geopolitical tensions, and the ongoing Red Sea issue," CR Forex Advisors MD Amit Pabari said. Additionally, India's liquidity deficit has widened to Rs 3.34 trillion (USD 40.18 billion) as of January, limiting the Reserve Bank of India from allowing the rupee to appreciate towards its fair value. Despite these obstacles, the overall outlook suggests

Rupee falls 4 paise to 83.05 against US dollar; brent crude futures surge

The rupee breached its seven-day gaining streak and depreciated 4 paise to 83.05 against the US dollar in early trade on Friday as foreign investors rushed to withdraw funds amid a sharp rise in crude oil prices. Despite a weak American currency and surging equity markets, overall sentiment was dented after the US data showed inflation increased more than expected in December, dousing hopes of an interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve in the near future, according to forex analysts. They said investors will also keep a close watch on the domestic inflation numbers to be released later in the day. At the interbank foreign exchange, the domestic currency opened weak at 83.08 and lost further ground to touch 83.10 against the greenback. The unit later traded at 83.05 against the dollar, registering a loss of 4 paise from its previous close. The domestic currency settled 2 paise higher at 83.01 on Thursday. This was the seventh straight session of rise for the local unit, during whic

Rupee dwindles 4 paise, reaches 83.17 against US dollar in early trade

The rupee depreciated 4 paise to 83.17 against the US dollar in early trade on Wednesday amid selling of equities by foreign investors and an upward movement in crude oil prices. Subdued sentiment in the domestic equity markets also weighed on the Indian currency, forex traders said. At the interbank foreign exchange, the domestic currency opened at 83.13 and slipped to 83.17 against the greenback, down 4 paise from its previous close. The domestic currency settled 1 paisa higher at 83.13 on Tuesday. The range-bound movement in the Indian currency was attributed to investors' concern over upcoming inflation numbers of India as well as the US to be released this week. Meanwhile, the dollar index, which gauges the greenback's strength against a basket of six currencies, was trading 0.02 per cent lower at 102.26 on Wednesday. Brent crude futures, the global oil benchmark, rose 0.23 per cent to USD 77.77 per barrel. In the domestic equity market, 30-share benchmark Sensex was tradin
