Rupee down at 42.86/87 against USD

Mumbai, May 27: The Rupee lost fourteen paise to be at 42.86/87 against US Dollar from its previous close of 42.72/73 per dollar in the opening trade.

The Indian currency weakened today as oil refiners stepped up their dollar buying to meet their month-end import payments, but it remained comfortably above 13-month low hit last week, dealers said.
