How to Convert Rupees to Canadian
The country of India employs the Indian Rupee (INR) as its standard unit of currency. One rupee divides into 100 paise, and rupees come in 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 and 1000 denominations. Canada uses the Canadian dollar (CAD) as its standard, which can be divided into 100 cents. When calculating INR into CAD, make sure to use the latest conversion rates, which change daily.
