Rupee closes tad higher, off six-week peak on importers' dollar demand



The Indian rupee ended slightly stronger on Wednesday after dollar demand from local importers prompted the currency to shed gains from a six-week high hit earlier in the session. The rupee closed at 83.28 against the U.S. dollar, marginally stronger than its close at 83.3050 in the previous session. The rupee climbed to an intra-day peak of 83.2250, its highest since April 10.
