Rupee weakens by 6 paise against dollar in early trade
Mumbai, India (BBN)-The rupee fell by six paise at 62.32 against the dollar in early trade on Wednesday at the Interbank Foreign Exchange due to appreciation of the US currency overseas.
Fresh demand for the dollar from importers also weighed on the local currency but a higher opening in the domestic equity market limited the rupee’s losses, forex dealers said, reports PTI.
The rupee had inched up by one paisa against the American currency to end at 62.26 in yesterday’s trade.
