Facts About the Indian Rupee Symbol by Mustaque is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The Indian rupee symbol (₹) was designed by Dr. D Udaya Kumar and incorporates elements of the Devanagari letter "र" and Latin capital letter "R" without its vertical bar, with parallel lines at the top alluding to the Indian tricolor flag. The symbol uniquely uses the Shiro Rekha horizontal line found in Devanagari script and its lines also represent the mathematical equal sign, making for a distinct currency symbol that maintains legibility even at small sizes.
