Rupee weakens by 20 paise to 86.36 against US Dollar in early trade

The rupee declined by 20 paise to 86.36 against the US dollar in early trade on Monday, pressured by the broad strength of the greenback in global markets and a negative trend in domestic equities.

According to forex dealers, the rupee's downward momentum continued, with the breach of the crucial 86.00 level accelerating the slide as a rebounding dollar index dampened investor sentiment.

At the interbank foreign exchange market, the local currency opened at 86.27 against the US dollar and touched a low of 86.36 in the initial session, marking a 20 paise drop from its previous close.
