anushka.trivedi.thomsonreuters.com@reuters.net)) MUMBAI, April 5 (Reuters) - The Indian rupee
strengthened past 82 to a dollar, touching a more than
three-week high as a broadly weak dollar aided sentiment with
foreign banks likely selling the greenback in the local
market, traders said.
The rupee rose up to 81.92 per dollar, against its
previous close of 82.3325, marking the currency's strongest
level since March 13.
Foreign banks sold dollars, probably for custodial clients,
while a round of stop-losses got triggered, a trader said.
