According to the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP), the rupee closed at Rs181.55 with a meagre gain of 0.02% against the greenback compared to a close of Rs181.58 on Friday. The rupee has maintained a downward trend for the last 11 months. It has lost 19.22% (or Rs29.28) to date, compared to the record high of Rs152.27 recorded in May 2021. With a fresh rise of 0.02%, the Pakistani rupee has depreciated by 15.24% (or Rs24.01) since the start of the current fiscal year on July 1, 2021, data released by the central bank revealed. Financial pundit Khurram Schehzad believe that the rupee\u2019s recovery streak for the seventh consecutive session was due to healthy dollar supplies and positive sentiments about the outlook for the country.
