The Indian rupee touches all time low of
58.95 against dollar. The rupee has lost over 2.5% in the last two trading days
and nearly 10% in the past six weeks on concerns of scaling down of stimulus
packages by the US.
This is a temporary phase. This is simply a
correction. Our indication is some of the FIIs are now poised to bring in large
funds. In next 3-4 days, we will see a mid-course correction. The rupee would
recover as the country’s economic fundamentals are strong and government is
taking steps to increase fund flows, Department of Economic Affairs Secretary Arvind
Mayaram said while addressing the reporters.
