On Thursday, the rupee had plunged by 28 paise to end at a new three-month low of 65.04 against the US dollar even as importers actively covered unhedged positions amid fears over Fed rate hike.

The rupee recovered 17 paise to 64.87 against the dollar in early trade on Friday, on mild selling of the greenback by exporters and a higher opening in the domestic equity market.
