Rupee symbol finalists
The ToI reported a few days ago that there are five finalists for the Indian Rupee symbol:
I had previously written about the Rupee symbol here. The ToI seems to suggest that #4 is the likely candidate. According to the article, the symbol should have been decided by now, but I haven’t found any information to that effect. Does anyone know the final outcome? I can’t say I like any of the finalists that much, but I guess out of the five #4 is probably one of the better ones.

I seriously wonder whats the fascination with double lines…. Its like we like to live under the shadow of the dollar :(
Surabhi had exactly the same comment!
I like number 4. Close to Hindi.
Double lines … meant for foreign investors and font makers to like it more perhaps. The Euro has it too.
Apparently, a decision has been made and it looks not that bad.

@Himanshu Khatri: Thanks for the update, Khatri bhai! I’m still ambivalent about the whole symbol thing. And as Abhaga points out, it will be a while before anyone can start using it anyways. All the controversy surrounding the selection procedure doesn’t help either.
But the final one is not from the last five selections… how come??
