The Indian rupee fell to its weakest closing level on record on Monday as rising Middle East tensions weighed on Asian currencies and risk assets but potential dollar sales by the Reserve Bank of India helped curb the local unit's losses. The rupee ended at 83.4500 per U.S. dollar compared with 83.4125 at close on Friday. The domestic currency had touched its lifetime low of 83.4550 earlier this month.
