Mumbai: Falling for the third straight session, the rupee weakened by 23 paise to 65.10 against the US dollar to hit its three-month low in opening trade at the forex market today.

Yesterday, the local currency had lost by 8 paise to end at 64.87 against the American unit on sustained dollar demand from importers and banks amid heavy capital outflows.

Meanwhile, the benchmark BSE Sensex fell 258.09 points, or 0.75 per cent, to 34,088.30 in the early trade. (PTI)
