ISLAMABAD: The Pakistani rupee appreciated against the US Dollar, closing at Rs161.73/US$.

Currently, the foreign exchange reserves held by the central bank have surged to $12.066 billion, whereas the foreign exchange held by the commercial banks’ amounts to $7.235 billion, reported the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP).
