 "Rupee falls to 56, could force RBI intervention")
The rupee fell to as low as 56 per dollar, near the session low of 56.04 in the previous day, as global risk assets remained under pressure and a day after the RBI disappointed domestic markets by keeping monetary policy unchanged.
Traders say the rupee is vulnerable to fall to a record low of 56.52 to the dollar hit on 31 May should the global risk environment deteriorate, setting up the prospect the Reserve Bank of India could intervene in spot markets.
