Rupee gains nine paise

MUMBAI: The rupee on Tuesday continued to rise smartly against the U.S. currency and closed strong at 44.5200/5300 a dollar on heavy foreign funds inflows along with weak dollar in the overseas markets.

In active trading at the interbank foreign exchange market, the Indian unit opened firm at 44.58/60 against Monday's close of 44.61/62 and rose further sharply to close at 44.52/53.

Persistent heavy inflows from foreign institutional investors into the Indian stock markets continued to boost rupee sentiment, forex dealers said.

Rupee sentiment was so strong that a rise in crude oil prices in Asia ahead of the outcome of an OPEC meeting next week was ignored by marketmen. — PTI
