The rupee declined by 17 paise to 68.85 per dollar in early trade today due to appreciation of the American currency overseas. A weak trend at Dalal Street also weighed on sentiment at the Interbank Foreign Exchange market. Forex dealers said increased demand for the US currency from importers and its gains against other currencies overseas put pressure on the rupee.
