Rupee stays unchanged

Mumbai, Dec 27

The rupee was unchanged against the dollar as there was both demand and supply of dollars. The domestic currency opened at 39.41/43, fell to a low 39.445 and touched a high of 39.40. It closed the day at 39.41/42, unchanged from Wednesday's close.

Dealers said that a large corporate was seen selling dollars through foreign banks. However, nationalised banks were seen buying dollars in the forex market, possibly on behalf of the RBI.

"There was two-way movement today. If supply abates and month-demand for the dollar increases tomorrow, then we could see some weakening in the rupee," said a dealer at a private bank. In the forward market, the 6-month closed at 2.02 per cent (1.88) and the 12- month ended at 1.46 per cent (1.37). - Our Bureau
