<h1>Rupee Gains 1 Paisa to Close at 86.56 Against USD Amid Positive Domestic Markets and RBI Support Measures</h1> The rupee appreciated by 1 paisa to close at 86.56 against the US dollar, supported by positive domestic markets, despite a strong US dollar and rising crude oil prices. Forex traders noted the dollar's strength due to anticipated no rate cut by the Federal Reserve and global risk concerns amid US tariff threats. The rupee opened at 86.58, fluctuating between 86.49 and 86.61 during the day.
