The Indian rupee gained 13 paise and touched 74.25 against the US dollar (20.23 versus the UAE dirham) in early trade on Thursday, supported by a firm trend in domestic equities and weak American currency.
The rupee opened at 74.32 against the dollar, then inched higher to 74.25, registering a gain of 13 paise over its previous close.

The rupee started on a stronger note this Thursday morning against the greenback as the US Federal Reserve said that it was still a ways away from considering raising interest rates, Reliance Securities said in a research note. The US Federal Reserve said the economic recovery is on track despite a rise in Covid-19 infections but did not set a timeline for tapering Fed asset purchase.
