Indian Money

In India we use rupees and paise as money.  In our daily life we purchase the required things from a shop and pay money to the shopkeeper for the purchased thing. We use money to pay for things that we buy. In India, money is used both in the form of coins and currency notes.

We use rupees and paise as money. Money comes in notes and coins of different values. Notes and coins come in different size, shape and colour for making it easier to identify them.

Given below are pictures of some notes and coins that we use as money to buy things.

Money is available in two forms (i) Coins and (ii) Currency notes.

Coins: The shapes and size of coins are changed from time to time. Nowadays the coins of one paise to twenty paise are not in use. The coins of 50-paise, 1-rupee, 2-rupee and 5-rupee denominations are mostly in use.
