The Indian rupee lost slight momentum in opening trades on Friday tracking modest rebound din dollar index from two-week low and sharp slide in equities globally. INR opened at Rs 90.69 per dollar and edged up to 90.65 so far during the day. Yesterday, rupee appreciated 17 paise to settle for the day at 90.61 against the US dollar, as foreign fund investments lifted investor sentiments.
