Mumbai: The Indian rupee strengthened on Monday tracking firm Asian share markets which renewed hopes of some foreign fund inflows into local stocks.
At 9:25 a.m, the partially convertible rupee was at 45.38/40 per dollar, stronger than 45.80/82 at close on Friday.
Asian equities traded higher on hopes for a $700 billion bailout proposed by the US government over the weekend to tackle the financial crisis.
