US Dollar Index
US Dollar Index (DX) traded on a flat note and depreciated marginally in yesterdays trading session on the back of mixed global market sentiments coupled with range bound US markets. Additionally, rise in risk appetite in the global market sentiments also lead to fall in demand for the low yielding currency. Further, decline in German WPI data also exerted downside pressure on the DX. The currency touched an intra-day low of 82.425 and closed at 82.60 on Tuesday.

Dollar/INR
The Indian Rupee appreciated by 0.3 percent in yesterdays trading session. The currency appreciated on the back of favorable industrial production and manufacturing output data from the country. Additionally, selling of dollars from exporters coupled with constant foreign inflows also supported an upside in the currency. Further, upbeat domestic market sentiments also acted as a positive factor for the currency. The Indian Rupee touched an intra-day high of 54.065 and closed at 54.14 against dollar on Tuesday. For the month of March 2013, FII inflows totaled at Rs.3,784.50 crores ($691.05 million) as on 12th March 2013. Year to date basis, net capital inflows stood at Rs.50,282.70 crores ($9,325.60 million) till 12th March 2013. Outlook From the intra-day perspective, we expect Indian Rupee to appreciate on the back of selling of dollars from exporters, favorable industrial production and manufacturing output data in yesterdays trade along with weakness in the DX. Further, expectations of positive wholesale prices index data in tomorrows session will also support an upside in the currency. However, mixed global market sentiments coupled with dollar demand from importers can cap sharp gains or even reversal in the currency.
