On March 5, 2009, Indian government has announced a contest to create a symbol for Indian Rupee. This symbol will represent Indian culture and its own identity with uniqueness. New Symbol is selected on 15 July 2010. Symbol is designed by Uday Kumar student of IITB.

This symbol is devanagari letter ‘R’ & Roman captital ‘R’ without its steam.
