Dollar managed to gain further ground against rupee on the money market on Saturday, dealers said.
In the final US trade, the dollar rose on Friday as concern about next week's European parliamentary elections dented demand for the euro, while the British pound dropped to a four-month low on worries about Britain's exit from the European Union.
The dollar has been favoured as a safe-haven currency even as the trade war between the United States and China escalates.
The euro has been hurt this week by Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini's comments that European Union rules harm his country.
Salvini said on Thursday that he would "tear apart" rules that are "strangling" Italy if his party scores well in the elections.
The euro briefly pared losses after the White House said President Donald Trump is delaying a decision for as long as six months on whether to impose tariffs on imported cars and parts to allow for more time for trade talks with the EU and Japan.
