The domestic currency lost ground during the day and hit a low of 81.76 a dollar but moved up to the level of 81.43 before closing at 81.70 a dollar.
“Rupee traded weak at 81.65 down from 81.42 on the back of a rise in FII selling and forex outflows… Lower dollar price and some early gains in the capital market, however, kept losses in rupee limited…,” said Jateen Trivedi, VP Research Analyst at LKP Securities.
On Monday, the rupee had declined by 25 paise to close at 81.42 against the US dollar.
