Strengthening of euro and yen against the dollar in overseas market and a higher opening in the domestic equity market also supported the rupee, Forex dealers said.
The rupee had gained 70 paise, the most in one and a half months, to close at 62.41 in yesterday’s trade amid a sharp rise in local equities and dollar sales by exporters and banks.
