Rupee hits day’s low against US dollar, recovers on RBI support

The Reserve Bank of India's interventions prevented the rupee from falling to a new record low. State-run banks sold dollars, and foreign investor inflows aided the currency's recovery. High oil prices and importer demand put pressure on the rupee throughout the day. Brent crude prices retreated after topping one hundred dollars a barrel. The rupee closed little changed, recovering from its intraday low.
