Description
The Indian rupee is the official currency of the Republic of India, issued and regulated by the Reserve Bank of India. It is subdivided into 100 paisa, although coins of lower denominations are rarely used in everyday transactions.
Introduced in its modern form in 1540 and standardized after independence, the rupee features a distinctive ₹ symbol adopted in 2010. Banknotes and coins display prominent national symbols such as the Ashoka Pillar, Mahatma Gandhi, and various cultural motifs, reflecting India's diverse heritage.
