The rupee gained 12 paise to close at 74.30 (provisional) against the U.S. dollar on Friday, tracking positive domestic equities.
At the interbank forex market, the local unit opened at 74.41 against the greenback and witnessed an intra-day high of 74.25 and finally ended the day at 74.30, registering a gain of 12 paise from its previous close of 74.42.
Positive moves in Indian equity indices and stronger Asian currencies aided sentiments, forex traders said, adding that Omicron worries and firm crude oil prices restricted the appreciation bias of the local unit to some extent.
