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).

About Australian Dollar (A$)

The Australian Dollar (AUD, ISO 4217 code 036, symbol A$) is the official currency of the Commonwealth of Australia, issued by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA, est. 1960). Subdivided into 100 cents. Banknotes are made of polymer (Australia was the first country to introduce polymer notes nationwide, in 1988): A$5 (Queen Elizabeth II → King Charles III planned), A$10, A$20, A$50, A$100; coins: 5¢, 10¢, 20¢, 50¢, A$1, A$2 (1¢ and 2¢ coins withdrawn 1992). Also legal tender or de facto in Christmas Island, Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Norfolk Island, Tuvalu, Kiribati, Nauru, and the Australian Antarctic Territory. AUD is heavily correlated with commodity prices — Australia is a major exporter of iron ore (largest globally), coal, LNG, gold, copper, and wheat. The RBA targets 2-3% CPI inflation over the medium term per the 1996 Statement on the Conduct of Monetary Policy. AUD is the world's 5th-most-traded currency per BIS Triennial Survey 2022 (6.8% of global FX turnover).
