The rupee edged up by 10 paise to 87.65 against the US dollar in early trade on Tuesday, supported by a positive trend in domestic equities. According to forex traders, the currency is moving in a narrow range, with the overall bias remaining negative amid uncertainty over the India–US trade tariff issue.
Market participants are also in a wait-and-watch mode ahead of the US CPI inflation data and the upcoming US–Russia talks scheduled for August 15.
