Rupee declines 11 paise to 83.69 against US dollar

The rupee fell by 11 paise to 83.69 against the US dollar in early trade on Thursday, influenced by a stronger dollar and rising crude oil prices. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) turning net sellers added pressure. The Sensex and Nifty reached record highs, while the dollar index and Brent crude saw marginal increases.
