The Indian rupee (symbol: INR; ISO code: INR) is the official currency of the Republic of India. The issuance of the currency is controlled by the Reserve Bank of India.[2]

The modern rupee is subdivided into 100 paise (singular paisa), though as of 2011 only 50-paise coins are legal tender.[3][4] Banknotes in circulation come in denominations of INR5, INR10, INR20, INR50, INR100, INR500 and INR1000. Rupee coins are available in denominations of INR1, INR2, INR5, INR10, INR20, INR50, INR60, INR75, INR100, INR150, INR500 and INR1000; the coins for INR20 and above are for commemorative purposes only; the only other rupee coin has a nominal value of 50 paise, since lower denominations have been officially withdrawn.

The Indian rupee symbol 'INR' (officially adopted in 2010) is derived from the Devanagari consonant "र" (ra) and the Latin letter "R". The first series of coins with the rupee symbol was launched on 8 July 2011.

    Hence it is evident that within the time span of 5 years (2005 – 2010), the Indian Rupee depreciated by approximately 4.5 percent against the US Dollar although the Indian economy fared quite well compared to the US and major European economies in terms of economic growth in the era of severe global recession.

One needs the permission of the Reserve Bank of India to convert large amounts of rupees to convert large amounts of Indian Rupees to any other international currency. The Indian rupee is acceptable at its face value within the geographical borders of the country. Outside India, it does not become altogether worthless, but loses its value sharply.…
