Forex dealers said besides increased selling of the American currency by exporters and banks, the dollar's weakness against rivals overseas supported the rupee. 

Yesterday, the rupee recovered marginally by 2 paise to close at Rs 61.94 on suspected selling of the US currency by state-run banks on behalf of the RBI and mild recovery in stocks. It had plunged to a nine-month low of 62.25 against the dollar.
