In the fourth Asian trade, the dollar stepped back in Asian trade on Thursday but held close to a two-week peak against a basket of major currencies as investors focused on the pace of the US Federal Reserve's coming interest rate hikes.

Minutes from the Federal Reserve's April meeting contained no major surprises, doing little to change expectations that the Fed will probably wait until late this year before raising rates.

The dollar was trading against the Indian rupee at Rs 63.74, the greenback was at 3.6025 versus the Malaysian ringgit and the US currency was available at 6.2021.

Inter bank buy/sell rates for the taka against the dollar on Thursday: 77.80-77.80 (previous 77.80-77.80). Call Money Rates: 05.25-7.25 percent (Previous 05.25-07.50 percent).
