The rupee was at 63.9725 versus Tuesday's close of 63.23. The rupee hit low of 64.10 and high of 63.115 so far.
Most of these stocks rallied between 7-15% after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has decided to allow banks to transfer SLR (statutory liquidity ratio) securities to HTM (Held to Maturity) category from available for sale (AFS) / held for trading (HFT) categories up to the limit of 24.5% as a one-time measure.
In addition, RBI has also allowed the banks to spread over the MTM (mark to market) losses on the remaining AFS/HFT book over the next three quarters equally.
Analyst at Angel Broking believe these measures are only sentimentally positive for the banks, other basic fundamental negatives remains largely unchanged except for the RBI intention to not let long term yields go too high.
