Banks and exporters turned their back on the greenback. The rupee looked good, taking support from a higher opening in domestic stocks. The dollar's falling fortune against currencies overseas was also instrumental in the rupee moving to a higher plane.
Yesterday, the rupee had strengthened by 8 paise to close at 65.28 per dollar.
