The rupee ended a tad weak at 67.33 at the interbank forex market today.
The domestic unit opened the session up by 18 paise at 67.14 on fresh selling of the US currency by exporters and banks amid a firm domestic equity market.
It hovered in a range of 67.38 and 67.11 before ending at 67.33, down 1 paise at 5 pm local time.
Forex dealers said besides dollar selling by exporters and banks, the greenback’s weakness against other currencies overseas after tepid inflation data supported the rupee. A firm domestic equity market also influenced the rupee uptrend.
Yesterday, the rupee had lost 5 paise to end at a fresh 15-month low of 67.32 against the American currency owing to steady dollar demand from banks and importers.
The Sensex rebounded about 290 points, while the Nifty reclaimed the 10,800-mark on robust buying in metal, banking, capital goods and energy stocks.
