 "Rupee up 13 paise at 67.82 against dollar in early trade")
The rupee regained 13 paise to 67.82 against the dollar in early trade today on fresh selling of the US currency by exporters and banks amid a higher opening in the domestic equity markets.
Forex dealers said apart from selling of the American currency by exporters and banks, weakness in the dollar against other emerging market currencies overseas, supported the rupee.
Further, a higher opening in the domestic equity market influenced the rupee's uptrend, they added.
Meanwhile, the benchmark BSE Sensex recovered by 252.75 points, or 1.05%, at 24,314.79 in early trade today.
