Minor changes were seen in the official and open market rates on Tuesday as demand for dollars still high by the importers to clear the oil payments, currency analysts said. In the meantime, the rupee managed to gain sharply against dollar in the open market, they said.
In the interbank market, the rupee shed two paisa against dollar for buying at 62.50 and it also dropped by three paisa for selling at 62.55, they said. The rupee resisted sharp decline on the back of interventions by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP), they said.
During the second day of the week, dollar edged towards a seven-week low against yen on concern that weak bank earnings will push the US economy closer to recession, fuelling expectations for more interest rate cuts by the Fed.
INTER-BANK MARKET RATES: The rupee gained 25 paisa more versus dollar for buying and selling at 62.50 and 62.60, depicting a net gain of 40 paisa since the week started, dealers said. The rupee, however, extended its fall against euro, shedding 20 paisa further for buying and selling at Rs92.30 and Rs 92.40, dealers said.
