MUMBAI, July 31 (Reuters) - The Indian rupee will be looking to recover on Monday, tracking the move higher in Asian peers on better-than-expected China data.
Non-deliverable forwards indicate the rupee will inch up to the U.S. dollar at open from 82.2475 in the previous session.
With Asian currencies doing well to begin the week and risk holding up, the rupee "will be hoping for a mini recovery", a forex trader at a bank said.
The data comes after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell left the door open for a rate hike at the September meeting.
Data out on Friday supported investor expectations that the Fed rate hike cycle is over.
