Mumbai, September 5: The rupee fell to its lowest since December 2006 on Friday, as a stock market slide triggered concerns of further foreign fund outflows.

At 3:42 p.m., the partially convertible rupee was at 44.70/72 per dollar, its lowest since Dec. 21, 2006 and weaker than its previous close of 44.35/36.

India's main share index fell 2.8 per cent, tracking losses in other regional stock markets weighed down by fears of a global economic slowdown.
