STAFF WRITER 9:32 HRS IST

Mumbai, Oct 11 (PTI) The rupee appreciated by 20 paise to Rs 44.22 a dollar at the Interbank Foreign Exchange market in early trade today on surging capital inflows.

Besides, dollar's weakness against major currencies overseas, also supported the rise in the rupee, dealers said.

The rupee had ended 23 paise lower at Rs 44.42/43 against the dollar in the previous session.

Meanwhile, the Bombay Stock Exchange index Sensex surged by 211.01 points to 20,461.27 points in early trade.
