Quote:

  •  "There was importer covering plus some profit taking on previous sales in late trade.But the rupee's move has been sharp, and there is a feeling that in the short run, the market has extended itself a bit. Broadly exporters still haven't hedged enough. Eventually, we will see exporters come in at say 46.00 levels" - Ananth Narayan G., head of fixed income, currencies and commodities, South Asia at Standard Chartered Bank in Mumbai.
