The Indian Rupee is the official Indian Rupee currency. INR/AUD represents the value of Indian Rupee money in Australian Dollar money and it is called the 'exchange rate' or 'forex rate'. This exchange rate from Indian Rupee to Australian Dollar is today at 0.018.

As an example, suppose you are from Sydney Australia and you travel to New Delhi India. There, you need to get 1000 Indian Rupees ( ₹) at a New Delhi bank to pay your hotel. In this case you would pay 0.018 * 1000 = 18.171 Australian Dollars ($). But, in practice, you will pay more (or perhaps much more) to get the same amount of your foreign currency due to the margin for the money conversion services costs like: commissions, credit card surcharges, ATM fees and other expenses. If, for example, you are using a credit card, this margin will typically be around 2 to 3 percent. We recommend that you choose the best place to make your money exchange because there can be a large difference between forex rates you will get.
