Indian Rupee Symbol has been Assigned U+20B9 by Unicode Consortium

indian rupee symbol selectedAs we all knew that Indian Government has selected a Symbol for INR sometime ago in July this year and not more than 3 months from then, the symbol has been made part of the official Unicode Standard by the Unicode Consortium.

The organization officially announced the Unicode Version 6.0 that includes a matter of 2000+ fresh characters and good news is that our Indian Rupee Symbol is one of them. The Unicode Consortium approved the code U+20B9 to the Indian Rupee sign.

However, the font families are not yet upgraded. Once it happened, you can simply use the HTML Code in your websites to display INR Symbol (or) by Pressing Alt + 20B9 in Word processors.

Meanwhile, you have to download the Rupee Font and Install it in order to use the INR Sign.
