In the final Asian market, the Japanese yen held gains against the dollar on Friday, as fresh doubts about the scale of the coronavirus outbreak supported demand for safe-haven currencies.

The Chinese yuan nursed losses as the flu-like virus, which emerged late last year in China's central Hubei province, cast a deeper shadow over the economic outlook.

The dollar was trading against the Indian rupee at Rs 71.290, the greenback was at 4.141 versus the Malaysian ringgi and the US currency was available at 6.981 in relation to the Chinese yuan.
