    Sub : Rupee Symbol Dear Mr. Chatterji: For some time now I have felt that our Indian rupee suffers from not having an identifiable symbol. Unlike the dollar $, the Pound Sterling , the Yen , and now even the Euro , the rupee continues to be written in any of the following ways:

    Re, Re., Rs, Rs., etc.

    To mark the resurrection of the strong Indian economy, could we launch a new symbol for the Rupee? I have a suggestion :

    Or more specifically:

    IN

    It perhaps may be used by other South Asian countries which use the term rupee or which ~ from a time when once before, the Indian economy was robust. I look forward to hearing from you on this matter, and would be happy to work further on this if you think that the idea has potential. With kind regards, Nondita Correa-Mehrotra
