Hi All,

We have Magento users around the world and among them lot of from Asian countries.so i decide to post how to add Indian Rupee Symbol in to your Magento Website easily.i ask any person using this steps please backup a copy of your original files which mention here and use at your own risk.

1. Add below code in root.xml
Path to the file: lib/Zend/Locale/Data/root.xml
Open root.xml file and search below code in that file
<currency type=”INR”>
replace next line with this below code
<symbol>Rs. </symbol>

2.Try to add rupee.js file in your website. You will get rupee.js file from below path
http://cdn.webrupee.com/js

3.Save the page as rupee.js and save it inside JS folder of the root.

4: Go to \app\design\frontend\default\YOUR-THEME\layout edit page.xml
After this <block type=”page/html_head” name=”head” as=”head”>

ADD
