The rupee gained 17 paise to 74.87 against the U.S. dollar in opening trade on Wednesday tracking positive domestic equities and weak American currency.<\/p>\n

At the interbank forex market, the domestic unit opened at 74.93 against the U.S. dollar, gained further ground and touched 74.87 against the U.S. dollar, registering a gain of 17 paise over its previous close.<\/p>\n

It had settled at 75.04 against the U.S. dollar on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Forex traders said positive trend in the equity markets, weak American currency and sustained foreign fund inflows supported the rupee.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the dollar index, which gauges the greenback\u2019s strength against a basket of six currencies, fell 0.28% to 93.12.<\/p>\n

On the domestic equity market front, the 30-share BSE benchmark Sensex was trading 391.87 points higher at 38,079.78 and broader NSE Nifty advanced 121.20 points to 11,216.45.<\/p>\n

Foreign institutional investors were net buyers in the capital market as they purchased shares worth Rs 703.74 crore on Tuesday, according to provisional exchange data.<\/p>\n
