Mumbai: The rupee depreciated by 5 paise to 65.06 against the dollar on Monday after renewed demand for the US currency from importers.
The dollar made headway against the euro after Angela Merkel's attempts to form a new government for Europe's biggest economy collapsed, plunging Germany into a crisis.
