Indian rupee weakened against US dollar on Wednesday, tracking weakness in Asian currencies.

The partially convertible currency is currently trading at 72.98, weaker by 5 paise from its previous close of 72.93 on Tuesday. The currency touched a high and low of 72.9900 and 72.8850 respectively. The reference rate for the dollar stood at 73.00, and for Euro stood 86.91 on March 08, 2021.
