Rupee opens 3 paise higher against dollar at 66.74 |
|
The rupee appreciated by 3 paise to 66.74 against the dollar in early trade on Wednesday on increased selling of the US currency by exporters and banks amid higher foreign inflows.
Forex dealers said a weakening dollar against some currencies overseas and a higher opening in domestic equities kept the rupee rising.
On Tuesday, the rupee had gained 20 paise to close at a fresh three-week high of 66.77 on sustained selling of the American unit amid strong recovery in domestic equities. Meanwhile, the benchmark BSE Sensex rose 95.74 points or 0.35% to 27,105.41 in early session.
