The rupee was trading a tad weak at 61.87 against the dollar at 4.30 pm local time due to mild dollar demand from importers.

After opening marginally higher at 61.83 per dollar against the previous close of 61.86, the domestic unit hovered in the range of 61.80 and 61.90 against the dollar in the afternoon trade.

The domestic currency had gained eight paise to close at 61.86 against the dollar in yesterday’s trade on account of suspected RBI intervention through state-owned banks.
