Dealers said no major deals were recorded during the day as demand for import payment for oil and other commodities remained low. The interbank market initiated in the band of 104.75 and 104.80. The market recorded high of 104.80 and low of 104.75. Currency experts said the local currency would remain stable against the dollar in the coming days owing to prospects of economic growth.
