Indonesian Rupiah to Indian Rupee

The Indonesian Rupiah (symbol: Rp, code: IDR, number: 360) is the official currency of Indonesia. Informally Indonesians use the word "perak" ("silver" in Indonesian) in referring to rupiah. The rupiah was first introduced in the country in 1945.

However, the modern version of the currency, the so-called new rupiah is being issued since the redenomination in 1965. The exchange was made at the rate of 1000 old rupees per new one. The rupiah formally is divided into 100 sens, but physically coins denominated less than 1 Rp are discontinued. The banknotes depict national heroes, politicians, monuments, sceneries of the country, local people.

The Indian rupee (international symbol s:₹ , Re, Rs (plural), code: INR, number: 356) is the currency used not only in India, but also in the neighboring Bhutan. 1 rupee is divided into 100 paisa. The name rupee for local currency has been in use since the 16th century.

For a long time there were several types of currency units operating in the country. A single rupee throughout the country was introduced in 1835 at the time when India was a colony of Great Britain.
