Rates moved both ways on the currency market on Friday in process of trading, dealers said. The rupee rose by 17 paisa in relation to dollar for buying at 86.58 and picked up 18 paisa for selling at 86.62, they said.
INTERBANK MARKET RATES: In the final Asian trade euro came off a seven-week peak as investors took a breather after a huge relief rally in riskier assets following a deal on Europe's debt crisis, though investors were eyeing more short-term gains in the currency.
The deal included an agreement that private banks and insurers would accept 50 percent losses on their Greek debt holdings, leveraging of the EU bailout fund and recapitalisation of its banks. While the agreement is unlikely to solve all Europe's financial problems, the clear signs of progress, combined with healthy US third-quarter GDP, changed the outlook for the dollar to strongly bearish and to more upbeat for riskier currencies.
The yuan ended up against dollar on Friday, with the central bank setting a record high mid-point after dollar index slumped following a European debt deal, which sparked a massive relief rally in risk assets. The dollar versus the Indian rupee was available at Rs 48.89 and against the Malaysian ringgit it was trading at 3.0770.
OPEN MARKET RATES: The rupee was down versus dollar, losing 30 paisa for buying at 86.90 and shed 20 paisa for selling at 87.20, they said. The rupee also fell in terms of euro, falling by Rs 1.08 for buying and selling at Rs 121.84 and Rs 122.34, they said.
