They said that 2 to 3 percent move is quite normal, which is based on economic factors. They said that the market witnessed higher demand for dollars as the corporate sector and importers were seen busy buying the foreign currency for their payments. They said as the fiscal year 2020-21 is ending June 30, the demand of the foreign currency is usually high as corporate entities repatriate profit and dividends.
