About Indian Rupee
The Indian Rupee (INR) is the official currency of India, the world's most populous country and fifth largest economy. The name "rupee" derives from the Sanskrit "rupyakam" (silver coin), used since the Maurya Empire around 300 BCE. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) manages monetary policy. The rupee was decimalised in 1957 and is divided into 100 paise, though paise coins below 50 are no longer in circulation. India's economy is driven by information technology services, pharmaceuticals, textiles, agriculture, and rapidly growing manufacturing.
