The local currency has gained considerable ground on the back of improved foreign exchange reserves, current account surplus, higher remittances besides less demand of dollar due to the ongoing pandemic.
The rupee has recovered more than Rs12 during the last seven months since it touched an all-time low of Rs168.43 last year in August.
