Two construction firm partners have been sentenced to two years in jail for failing to hand over a completed flat to buyers.

The Indian rupee weakened by 7 paise against the US dollar on Tuesday morning amid rising crude oil prices and sustained dollar demand.

Domestic equity markets also opened lower, with continued selling by foreign institutional investors adding to the pressure on the rupee.
