Forex Rupee closes at 39.30 Mumbai, Oct. 11 The rupee surged to an intra-day high of 39.28 against the dollar on Thursday after Infosys came out with its quarterly results. The home currency opened at 39.32 and immediately went up to 39.28 before ending the day at 39.30/31. Foreign exchange dealers said that the Reserve Bank of India started intervening at 39.28 levels and was thereafter continuously intervening, trying to cap the appreciation of rupee. "The RBI was buying throughout the day in order to cap the further strengthening of the rupee," a dealer with a private bank said. Market participants, however, expect the rupee to appreciate further to 39 levels. In forwards, the six-month premia closed at 1.75 per cent (1.49 per cent) and the 12-month closed at 1.36 per cent (1.20 per cent). - Our Bureau More Stories on : Forex
