The rupee recovered from its all-time low in early trade on Friday tracking a positive trend in the equity market. Today, the US dollar rose by 10 paise to reach 83.13.
Forex traders said the rupee traded in a narrow range due to firmer crude prices and the strengthening of the American currency overseas, while positive domestic equities weighed down the losses.
