The rupee maintained upward trend in terms of the dollar on the money market on Friday in the process of trading, dealers said. The rupee stayed put against the dollar for buying and selling at Rs 115.61 and Rs 115.62, they said.
INTER-BANK MARKET RATES: In the final Asian trade, the dollar hovered below a 4-1/2-month high against a basket of major currencies on Friday after tepid US inflation data prompted traders to pare bets of faster rate hikes.
US consumer prices rose less than expected in April, which would support gradual, rather than more aggressive, rate increases by the Federal Reserve.
"Given recent rises in oil prices, a weaker dollar earlier this year, and US tax cuts, markets were clearly worried more about upside risks in inflation," said Minori Uchida, chief currency strategist at MUFG Bank.
The so-called core CPI, which strips out the volatile food and energy components, rose 0.1 percent from previous month, compared to economists' median forecast of 0.2 percent rise.
The dollar was available against the Indian rupee at Rs 67.205 and the greenback was at 6.344 in relation to the Chinese yuan.
OPEN MARKET RATES: The rupee picked up 20 paisas in relation to the greenback for buying and selling at Rs 117.30 and Rs 117.80, they said. The rupee failed to keep rising trend, losing 75 paisas versus the euro for buying and selling at Rs 139.60 and Rs 141.10, they added.
