Rupee gains 20 paise against US dollar as RBI support kicks in, greenback weakens

On Friday, the Rupee showcased a solid performance, climbing 20 paise to hit 94.79 against the US dollar, building on gains from the previous day aided by a softer dollar and actions by the Reserve Bank of India. Nevertheless, escalating crude oil prices curtailed further advancements, even as domestic equities remained upbeat.
