Mumbai: The rupee advanced by 11 paise to 64.85 against the dollar at the interbank forex market on Thursday on increased selling of the US currency by exporters and banks.

A weak dollar against other currencies overseas supported the rupee gains.

Stocks markets opening with gains also bolstered the domestic currency, a dealer said.
