The reason behind this depreciation is the easing in import restrictions that has lifted demand for the dollar after months of contraction which also ensured that Pakistan was able to ensure a huge reduction trade deficit during the last fiscal year. On the other hand, the rupee was performing even worse in the open market with the dollar available for Rs312, representing a Rs8 loss during a single session. The previous session on Monday saw the rupee shedding Rs1.35, or 0.45 per cent of its value, in the official exchange rate. Meanwhile, the latest losses come on a day when the dollar is down against major currencies in global money markets with the greenback easing from recent 10-weak peaks on Tuesday as global risk appetite, hurt by a jump in US government bond yields and a weakening Chinese economy, staged a rebound.
