On the other hand, the buying rate of the US dollar in the open market was Rs158.1 while its selling rate was Rs158.7 on February 26.
“Positive sentiment prevailed due to increased inflows from expatriate Pakistanis in Roshan Digital Account (RDA) Scheme. We expect the rupee could gain more in days ahead and will touch the Rs158/dollar level soon,” he added.
In the last five months since RDA was launched, more than 92,000 accounts have been opened by overseas Pakistanis living in 97 countries.
