Dealers said apart from dollar's weakness, capital inflow into equities by foreign funds also kept the rupee sentiment firm.

The rupee had ended flat at Rs 44.30/31 against the US currency in the previous session.

Meanwhile, the Bombay Stock Exchange index Sensex rose by 60.24 points to 20,935.95 in the opening trade.
