"The dollar index has found support around 101.25$, contributing to the minor weakness observed in the rupee," said Jateen Trivedi, vice president, research, at LKP Securities. "Additionally, a jump in crude prices overnight, from 76$ to 78$ in Brent, added pressure to the rupee from the Rs 83.25 level. Broadly, the trend for the rupee remains sideways, with the range fluctuating between Rs 83.15 and Rs 83.45."

"For USDINR, Rs 83.20 will act as a support and Rs 83.40 as the resistance."
