In previous sessions, the Pakistani rupee saw little improvement against the greenback, gaining momentum.
Last month, PKR clawed back in the aftermath of the Stand-by agreement with the IMF. The interbank exchange rate of the rupee recovered by more than Rs10 and hovered around Rs 275.
The positive impact however faded soon amid high demand for dollar as the government ended all curbs on imports.
