Reuters Market Eye - The rupee rises to a near one-month low as local stocks are in negative. The unit is at 54.60/61 after falling to 54.6650, its lowest since March 8, versus 54.43/44 close on Wednesday.

Local stocks down 0.8 pct.

The pair has resistance at 54.66 and 54.85, the 61.8 percent and 76.4 percent Fibonacci retracement of the 55.15-53.90 decline.

The yen dropped sharply on Thursday after the Bank of Japan announced aggressive easing, saying it will double its holdings of bonds and stocks in two years.
