Subject: Rupee spurts to over 2-month high on unabated foreign fund inflows
The rupee on Tuesday gained 18 paise to close at more than two-month high of 69.71 against the US dollar propelled by foreign capital inflows and a weaker greenback in overseas markets. Dollar selling by exporters and banks also supported the domestic currency, forex dealers said.

Foreign investors continued to pour in capital into Indian markets Tuesday amid growing risk appetite for riskier assets.

According to provisional exchange data, FPIs put in Rs 2,477 crore on a net basis in capital markets Tuesday. They had invested a net Rs 3,810.60 crore on Monday.

"Rupee gains for a second day as risk-on sentiment boosts hopes of more inflows into the domestic equity and debt market. The benchmark BSE Sensex closed at five-month high with whopping gain of 1.30 per cent," V K Sharma, Head PCG & Capital Markets Strategy, HDFC Securities observed.

The US dollar index -- a measure of the greenback's strength against a basket of major global currencies -- was lower by 0.17 per cent at 97.012.

The British pound rose against the dollar after British Prime Minister Theresa May struck a revision to the Brexit deal that she expects would sail through parliament.

At the Interbank Foreign Exchange, the rupee opened at 69.73 and advanced 25 paise to 69.64 on strong gains in equity markets.

Later, it trimmed some of the gains to end up by 18 paise or 0.26 per cent at 69.71, the highest closing level since January 1. The rupee had gained 25 paise Monday.

The 30-share BSE index settled 481.56 points, or 1.30 per cent, higher at 37,535.66. The broader NSE Nifty reclaimed the psychological 11,300-level and closed with gains of 133.15 points, or 1.19 per cent, at 11,301.20.

Analysts said that foreign funds poured money in domestic equity market by pricing in second term for the incumbent NDA government.

Meanwhile, Brent crude, the global oil benchmark, rose 23 cents to USD 66.81 per barrel on account of healthy demand and output cuts led by producer group OPEC.
