Rupee fails to maintain early gains vs dlr, drops 18 paise
The domestic currency hovered in a range of 51.05 per dollar and 51.35 per dollar during the morning trade. Month-end dollar demand from importers mainly from oil- refiners mainly affected the rupee value against the dollar, a forex dealer said. Sharp fall in equity market is another factor behind fall in the rupee value. The BSE Sensex tumbled 184 points or 1.06 per cent in the early trade amid weak Asian markets.
