The open market witnessed the dollar’s value hitting 300 rupees.
The rupee's continued devaluation is shown by the higher rise in the value of the dollar, which creates a difficult mood for the coming week.
According to currency dealers, the dollar surged by 0.75 paisas to reach a startling 301.75 rupees at the beginning of the new business week, continuing the greenback's upward trajectory against the Pakistani rupee.
The rupee consistently weakened over the preceding week, suffering losses in each of the five trading sessions, and ultimately falling to an unheard-of low of 301 against the US dollar.
