What are the types of currencies in India? What is the position of these currencies in the international market?

Indian monetary system and its position in the international market

Being one of the major economies of the world, India's currency plays a vital role in its economic activities. The main currency of India is the Indian rupee with the symbol ₹. The rupee consists of 100 paise.

The Indian rupee has some influence in international markets, despite the challenges and constraints it faces. In terms of international transactions and reserve currencies, the Indian rupee has a relatively limited place in the global monetary system. The rupee is less internationalised than major international currencies such as the US dollar, the euro and the yen.

However, the rapid development of the Indian economy in recent years has created favourable conditions for enhancing the status of the rupee in the international market. The Government of India is also taking various measures to promote the internationalisation of the rupee, including strengthening currency swap agreements with other countries and expanding the use of the rupee in international trade.

To get a better visualisation of how the Indian Rupee compares to other major currencies, the table below provides a comparison:

| Currency | Share of international reserves | Frequency of use in international transactions | Exchange rate stability |

|————|——————-|———————-|————|

| USD | Higher | Very High | Relatively Stable |

| Euro | Higher | Higher | Stabiliser

| Japanese Yen | Proportion | Higher | Relatively stable

| Indian Rupee | Lower | Limited | Some Volatility | Indian Rupee | Lower | Limited | Some Volatility | Indian Rupees

Fluctuations in the exchange rate of the Indian rupee are influenced by a number of factors. The rate of growth of the domestic economy, the level of inflation, adjustments in fiscal and monetary policies, as well as fluctuations in commodity prices in the international markets and changes in global economic conditions affect the exchange rate of the rupee.

Although the position of the Indian rupee in the international market needs to be further strengthened, the rupee's influence in the international monetary system is expected to gradually increase as India's economy continues to grow and financial reforms advance.
