Forex dealers said weakness in the dollar against other currencies overseas on disappointing US economic data — showing wholesale inflation and industrial production flat in October — also supported the rupee.
The rupee opened at 67.91 and hit a high of 67.76 and a low of 67.93 in intra-day deals.
Yesterday, the rupee had lost 20 paise to end at near five—month low of 67.94 against the US currency in a highly volatile trade amid unabated dollar outflows.
