About Indian Rupee (₹)
The Indian Rupee (INR, ISO 4217 code 356, symbol ₹) is the official currency of the Republic of India, issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI, est. 1935). Subdivided into 100 paise. Banknotes: ₹10, ₹20, ₹50, ₹100, ₹200, ₹500, ₹2,000 (₹2,000 withdrawal completed by RBI as of October 2023 demonetization); coins: ₹1, ₹2, ₹5, ₹10, ₹20. The 50 paise coin is no longer commonly accepted. The famous 'demonetization' of November 8, 2016 invalidated ₹500 and ₹1,000 notes overnight (86% of cash by value), an unprecedented monetary policy intervention. India is the world's 5th-largest economy by nominal GDP (~$3.7T in 2024 per IMF WEO) and the 3rd-largest by PPP. The RBI targets 4% CPI inflation ± 2% band per the Monetary Policy Framework Agreement 2015 + RBI Act amendment 2016 establishing the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC). INR is also de facto used in Bhutan (pegged 1:1 to Bhutanese Ngultrum) and Nepal (NPR pegged at 1.6:1 to INR since 1993).
