New Delhi: The rupee fells from a session high of 55.30 against dollar to trade at 55.45/46, slightly up from its previous close of 55.52/53 tracking a dip in the euro.

 

USD/INR had hit a one-week high on Monday after Finance Minister P. Chidambaram promised forthcoming fiscal consolidation steps.

 

However, the Indian currency rebounded tracking a dip in the euro as traders also focused on potential ECB steps.

 

Some oil-related USD buying is also seen, though traders say flows are not as consistent as Monday.

 

A dealer at a foreign bank tips USD/INR to trade at 55.25-55.55 band for the session.
