Aggarwal, Chairman and Managing Director, SMC Investments & Advisors.In terms of currency, the rupee on a weekly basis weakened by Rs 1.22 to close at 70.81 from its previous week's close of 69.59 per greenback."Going forward rupee is looking forward to some booster dose from the FM. However, global trade tensions shall keep rupee on a weaker foot, it may test 71.50 levels in coming week," said Sajal Gupta, Head, Forex and Rates, Edelweiss Securities.On technical charts, any further rallies in the coming week could find resistance at 11,181-11,311 levels as the NSE Nifty50 index remains in an intermediate downtrend.(Rohit Vaid can be contacted at rohit.v@.in)( With inputs from IANS )
