At the forex market, the domestic currency settled at 45.265/275, a loss of 28 paise, or 0.62 per cent, over the previous close.
The rupee opened at 45.12/13 a dollar as against overnight close of 44.985/995 a dollar. It gradually moved downwards to a low of 45.34, before recovering slightly to settle the day at 45.265/275.
