The rupee weakened by 31 paise to 62.64 against the US dollar in early trade today at the Interbank Foreign Exchange on month-end demand for the American currency from banks and importers.

Forex dealers attributed the fall in the rupee to increased demand for the dollar from importers and a lower opening of the domestic equity market but the Greenback's weakness against other currencies overseas, capped the rupee's losses.

The rupee had snapped its seven-day winning spree by slipping seven paise to close at 62.33 against the dollar in yesterday's trade.
