An amalgamation of the Devanagari ‘Ra’ and the Roman capital ‘R’ without the stem.
The new symbol has a lot of similarities with the euro and many felt it should have been more Indian. But there is no doubt that this symbol make the rupee more internationally recognizable.Proper marketing campaign is necessary to create an awareness and to bring it to everybody's notice.
