New currency symbol for Indian Rupee is announced by Indian government today, now like the US Dollar ($) , pound ("£" or "₤") and the Japanese Yen (¥), the Indian Rupee too will soon have a unique sign that will be recognized worldwide.

Here is the symbol..



Hows is it?

Its great. I was waiting for India to make a symbol for Rupees which will be recognized worldwide.

How do we type it in a computer?

Later this year it will accepted by Unicode Consortium, then this symbol will be implemented in hardwares, softwares, mobiles OS and in keyboards.

It looks horrific.

I could never write that in a hurry.

This is awesome. I'm going to start talking about currency in rupees simply to write this badass symbol. Looks like the flag of some evil space empire.

I think it looks like part of an 'R' with two lines through it
But keep dreaming ^_^

Indeed it is. R of Rupee, with 2 strikes (most currency signs have it).

Better image..
