    The rupee failed to retain its firmness against dollar on the interbank market on Friday, falling 14 paisa for buying at 80.80 and lost 11 paisa for selling at 80.85 in process of trading, dealers said. Tight supply position of dollars pushed the rupee down and it is likely that the rupee may not come down sharply but it may not be able to sustain its stability at the end of the out going fiscal year, 2008-09, they added.

    Amid final Asian trading dollar inched down against a basket of major currencies, with investors shifting money to higher-yielding currencies on the view that the recession hitting the world’s major economies is easing. Sterling was under pressure as political uncertainty deepened in Britain with a third senior minister quitting the government on Thursday and calling on Prime Minister Gordon Brown to step down to improve his party’s chances at a general election due within a year.

    OPEN MARKET RATES: The rupee drifted lower against dollar for buying and selling at 80.80 and 81.00, they said. The rupee showed little difference versus euro, shedding five paisa for buying at Rs 113.50 while it did not move for selling at 114.50, they said.
