Please change the template to:
[[Image:Indian Rupee symbol.svg|link=Indian rupee|baseline|{{{1|7px}}}]]<noinclude> {{pp-template}} {{documentation}}</noinclude>
Currently, clicking the symbol leads to the SVG file. Although the symbol should link to Indian rupee.

Usage example: {{Indian rupee|link=currency}}

The Unicode position U+20B9 was formally assigned 14 months ago (and in beta, two months before that). The creation date of this template predates that, so when originally created it used an image. However, operating systems have been updated by now. Therefore changed to text as per WP:BOLD.
Although a few might still use an un-updated operating system, they are partially accommodated by the mouseover text "INR", and in any case the inconvenience to them must be weighed against the problems that were caused by the use of an image:
|alt=
option was hardly ever invoked).So it is arguably a case of least inconvenience to the larger number of users. -- P.T. Aufrette ( talk) 03:35, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
January 2013, and I've also been bold and changed this to Unicode again. The graphical way of doing it was ugly and had many problems, which have already been discussed here. My two year old non-Indian laptop seems to display the symbol fine, so... :D Xmoogle ( talk) 15:28, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
For the record, the svg image was replaced by a unicode symbol again in June 2014 and reverted shortly thereafter by an editor who said he could not see the symbol. – Jonesey95 ( talk) 17:06, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
I have been fixing broken URLs in citations recently, and I have found a few in which someone has done a find-and-replace on an entire article, replacing each instance of "Rs" with {{Indian rupee}}
. If you do this within a citation, you are likely to break the citation's url, make the |title=
parameter inaccurate, or both. Please be careful.

Hi all, a few years ago, the content of this template was changed from the image to a unicode symbol, which I, among others had trouble viewing. I still use Windows XP, and my browser still does not display the Unicode symbol. However, with passing time, and the fact that Windows XP has also been phased out, I believe newer OSs such as Windows 7, 8, Android 4.x+, all support the unicode symbol, ₹ [I hope I have copied the correct symbol]. Do you think, it is time for a change? -- Rsrikanth05 ( talk) 21:18, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
I myself was against a previous change, I believe, back in 2012. At that time, I thought it was unfair to use the Unicode symbol because many Indian computers [running Windows XP, and even 98] wouldn't be able to display it. I still us XP, won't be changing anytime soon, still cannot see the symbol, but I see that others have started using Windows 7, 8, Mac OS X, and later OSs which I know have built in support for the unicode character. I personally believe that it is high time we change it to Unicode. I've posted this on the India noticeboard as well. -- Rsrikanth05 ( talk) 18:19, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
It'll probably be reverted, but I went and made this Unicode again.
If it is reverted, here's the code I used, for future reference:
{{#if:{{{link|}}} |[[{{{link}}}|<span alt="{{{alt|INR}}}" title="{{{alt|INR}}}">₹</span>]] |<span alt="{{{alt|INR}}}" title="{{{alt|INR}}}">₹</span> }}
Unlike some other Unicode variants people have made, this one properly supports the link= and alt= functionality. — ajf ( talk) 16:02, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
@ Ajfweb: - Hey there! I see that you have reverted my edits to this template but you didn't provide a reason. Could you please explain as to why you reverted my edits? Tamravidhir ( talk!) 13:59, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
@ Sladen: Hi Sladen! Well, this problem had also occurred a few months back. Actually, the Unicode which is used in this template is still not supported by many computers and mobiles. due to which, for example my PC, can't decipher it and show only a box. And, I think that causes confusion for the readers, and the replacement of the code with an image would be more favourable and preferred, as it would be in the interest of all.
