The rupee could not retain its firmness against the US currency in the interbank market on Saturday, falling six paisa for buying and selling at 62.66 and 62.68, money experts said. They said that during the third quarter of the current fiscal year, payments turned costlier just because of higher oil prices in the international market.
In the New York market, dollar rebounded at the week-end from record lows as a Federal Reserve liquidity injection fueled some speculation the central bank might hold off on cutting interest rates aggressively even after a sharp contraction in US payrolls.
OPEN MARKET RATES: The rupee, however, maintain its commanding position in terms of dollar, gaining 10 paisa for buying and selling at 62.70 and 62.80, dealers said. The rupee also followed suit versus euro, rising 30 paisa for buying and selling at Rs 95.80 and 95.90, they said.
