== Symbol==
{{Main|Rupee sign|Currency sign}} 
The symbol <big>{{char|₹}}</big> is the [[Indian rupee sign]]. The [[precomposed character]] <big>{{char|₨}}</big> is a [[currency sign]] used to represent the [[monetary unit]] of account in [[Pakistani rupee|Pakistan]], [[Sri Lankan rupees|Sri Lanka]], [[Nepalese rupee|Nepal]], [[Mauritian rupee|Mauritius]], [[Seychellois rupee|Seychelles]], and formerly in [[Indian rupee|India]]. It resembles, and is often written as, the [[Latin character]] sequence "Rs" or "Rs.". The symbol <big>{{char|रू}}</big> represents the  [[Nepalese rupee]]. Currency signs exist for other countries that use the rupee but not this sign: their usage is also described at the [[rupee sign|main article]].

===In Unicode===
The [[codepoint]]s for these symbols are:
* {{unichar|20A8|nlink=Rupee sign}}
* {{unichar|20B9|nlink=Indian rupee sign}}

{{unichar|3353}} is a square version of {{lang|ja|ルピー}} {{Transliteration|ja|rupī}}, the Japanese word for "rupee".
It is intended for [[CJK Compatibility]] with earlier character sets.
No other rupee symbols or abbreviations have dedicated code points. Most are written as [[ligature (typography)|ligature]]s using the [[combining diacritic]] technique: For example, the Nepalese rupee {{char|रू}} is written using {{unichar|0930}} with {{unichar|0942}}.
