The Indian rupee is trading lower by 41 paise at 71.47 per dollar versus previous close 71.06.

On the domestic front, data showed India’ fiscal deficit stood at 121.5% of the budgeted estimate of Rs 6.24 lakh crore for 2018-19. The gap was 112.4% in December and 113.7% in January 2018, said Motilal Oswal.
