The rupee closed at 113.57/113.62 per dollar, surpassing the previous all-time low of 113.48/113.54 hit on Monday. `Importers bought dollars to settle trade bills while some banks bought for short-covering,` a currency dealer said. Some analysts expect the rupee to continue to depreciate to as much as 118-120 per dollar by the end of the year. Others are eyeing 114 per dollar. The six-month forward rate stood at 121.10/121.20 rupees per dollar. The rupee has depreciated 5.76 percent so far this year, after weakening by around 5 percent in 2006. ] |
