The rates of the rupee moved both ways on the currency market on Monday in process of trading, currency experts said. The rupee lost 30 paisa in relation to dollar for buying and selling at 81.00 and 81.10, they said.
In the first session of the Asian trade, the US dollar retreated after recording its biggest monthly gain in more than 17 years in October, on signs of some revival in risk appetite as investors anticipate another round of interest rate cuts by major central banks.
Asian stock markets were higher, the Aussie dollar rallied nearly 3 percent from Friday's lows and the Japanese yen surrendered some of its gains even though traders had their doubts about how long the revival would last.
OPEN MARKET RATES: Against the interbank trend, the rupee gained 1.45 to 81.05 and it also rose by Re.1 to Rs 82.00 during the trade, they said. The rupee appreciated versus euro for buying and selling at Rs 104.15 and Rs 104.30, they said.
