The rupee strengthened by 9 paise to 62.59 against the US dollar in early trade today at the Interbank Foreign Exchange market today on increased selling of the American currency by exporters.

The rupee had lost 12 paise to close at 62.68 on Friday weighed down by demand for the American currency from importers.
