Rupee gains 5 paise against dollar


Mumbai, July 19

The rupee strengthened by about five paise against the greenback on Thursday backed by strong dollar supplies into the domestic market. The home currency closed at 40.35/36, up from the previous close of 40.40/41. It opened at 40.38/40 and saw a high of 40.35 but immediately slipped to 40.42 levels due to dollar buying by a few nationalised banks, before ending the day at 40.35/36. Market participants expect the rupee to strengthen to 40.33 levels. In forwards, the six-mon th premia closed at 1.64 per cent (1.18 per cent) while the 12-month premia closed at 1.77 per cent (1.57 per cent). —
