The rupee improved with sharp gain against dollar on the interbank market on Saturday, rising 75 paisa for buying and selling at 80.70 and 80.80 in a single day rally, money experts said. The rupee appreciation versus the dollar was expected and it is most likely that the local currency may extend gains in the coming days, they said.
At the final session in the NY market, the US dollar recorded its biggest monthly gain against a basket of currencies in more than 17 years, boosted by month-end demand and concerns about a deteriorating global economy. The yen parted with most of its gains against dollar, but traded sharply higher against euro as investors remained averse to risk after bleak US economic reports heightened global recession fears.
OPEN MARKET RATES: The rupee depicted gain of 35 paisa against the dollar at 82.50 and it also rose by 30 paisa for selling level for selling at 83.30, they said. The rupee also rose by 30 paisa against euro for buying and selling at Rs 105.05 and Rs 106.05, they said.
