The Indian economy is also making significant strides amidst social and economic issues, with many investors showing interest in making India a manufacturing hub.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within that background, we came across viral social media posts that exaggerated India&#8217;s financial and economic development and claimed that the Indian Rupee had become the World`s fourth most recognized currency. But first, let\u2019s take a look at how the claim was shared among social media users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Social Media Posts<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Facebook posts accompanying a short video clip claim that the Indian Rupee (INR) had become the 4<sup>th<\/sup> most recognized international currency after the US Dollar, British Pound &amp; Euro to be accepted on Currency Exchange counters across airports globally. The symbol of the Indian Rupee (\u20b9) can be detected on the wall of the counter along with the other three currency symbols, the US Dollar ($), Pound (\u00a3), and Euro (\u20ac).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The narration further honors this achievement to the combined efforts of the government officials. Furthermore, the post states that despite many believing that INR was depreciating against the USD, it\u2019s actually at a much more stable place, as seen below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe frameBorder='0' width='640' height='360' webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen src=\"https:\/\/www.awesomescreenshot.com\/embed?id=17052558&#038;shareKey=ede9c0fc8dd46f0ef31b4be7225b4c36\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/web.facebook.com\/IndiasGrowingMilitaryPower\/videos\/1360371207868515\/\">Facebook<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.awesomescreenshot.com\/video\/17052558?key=ede9c0fc8dd46f0ef31b4be7225b4c36\">Archived<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The short clip went viral among Facebook users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"454\" height=\"610\" src=\"https:\/\/srilanka.factcrescendo.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-5.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6833\" srcset=\"https:\/\/srilanka.factcrescendo.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-5.png 454w, https:\/\/srilanka.factcrescendo.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-5-223x300.png 223w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 454px) 100vw, 454px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We noticed several posters also created as a result of this video.

Details about these currencies, listed alphabetically, can be read from their website <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelex.qa\/order-currency\/exchange-rates\">here<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20230503144823\/https:\/www.travelex.qa\/order-currency\/exchange-rates\">Archived<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The website of the Qatar airport also shows these details and can be reached <a href=\"https:\/\/dohahamadairport.com\/airport-guide\/facilities-services\/facilities\">here<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20230503145837\/https:\/dohahamadairport.com\/airport-guide\/facilities-services\/facilities\">Archived<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then why is the symbol of the Indian Rupee on the wall of the currency exchange store?

The Hindu reports that Banks from 18 countries have been permitted by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to open Special Vostro Rupee Accounts (SVRAs) for settling payments in Indian rupees. The decision was taken in a background where dealing with Russia became so difficult from US Dollars due to various international sanctions against Russia. The Hindu report can be read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thehindu.com\/news\/national\/rbi-has-allowed-banks-from-18-countries-to-trade-in-rupee-government-in-rajya-sabha\/article66619943.ece\">here<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20230503170915\/https:\/www.thehindu.com\/news\/national\/rbi-has-allowed-banks-from-18-countries-to-trade-in-rupee-government-in-rajya-sabha\/article66619943.ece\">Archived<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Indian Ministry of Finance answered a question from a higher parliamentary body of India (Rajya Sabha) and revealed related details. Their answer can be reached from <a href=\"https:\/\/pqars.nic.in\/annex\/259\/AU1515.pdf\">here<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the Indian government, the 18 countries that have been allowed to trade from Indian Rupee are Botswana, Fiji, Germany, Guyana, Israel, Kenya, Malaysia, Mauritius, Myanmar, New Zealand, Oman, Russia, Seychelles, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, Uganda, and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs of date, approvals have been granted by RBI to domestic and foreign AD Banks in 60 cases for the opening of Special Rupee Vostro Accounts (SRVAs) of correspondent banks from 18 countries.\u201d, the Indian Finance Ministry says in their answer to Rajya Sabha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking at the performance of INR, 2022 was one of the worst-performing years for the Indian Rupee in recent history, in which the Indian Rupee significantly depreciated against the US dollar. Although the trend continued in the first few months of 2023, the INR is now stabilized against the US dollar around the <a href=\"https:\/\/ycharts.com\/indicators\/us_dollar_to_indian_rupee_exchange_rate_h10#:~:text=US%20Dollar%20to%20Indian%20Rupee%20Exchange%20Rate%20is%20at%20a,6.76%25%20from%20one%20year%20ago.\">82 Rupee mark<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The US dollar is easily the most traded currency worldwide. A recent <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.ph\/wip\/e0xnX\">Forbes article<\/a> lists the ten strongest currencies in the world based on their relative value against the U.S. dollar, and it doesn\u2019t feature INR. However, Indian Rupee has been a popular currency for a few years and is among the world\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.xe.com\/popularity.php\">top 5 most popular currencies.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow us and stay up to date with our latest fact checks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/factcrescendosl\/\">Facebook<\/a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/factcrescendosl\">Twitter<\/a>&nbsp;|<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/factcrescendo_sl\/\">Instagram<\/a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/publications\/CAAqBwgKMODMpgswyNe-Aw\">Google News<\/a><strong> | <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@factcrescendosl\">TikTok<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to our investigation, we found out that the viral social media claims about the Indian Rupee are misleading. India has allowed only 18 countries to trade from INR, but not 36 countries. However, those countries have not replaced the US dollar with Indian rupee.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And also, the Indian Rupee is not the fourth-highest internationally recognized currency. However, the Indian government has promoted the Indian rupee as an international currency &amp; INR has been a popular currency for a few years and is among the topmost popular currencies in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<!DOCTYPE html>\n\t\t\t\t\t<html>\n\t\t\t\t\t<head>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, initial-scale=1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t\t\t.container {\n\t\t\t\t\t  border: 2px solid #000;\n\t\t\t\t\t  background-color: #eee;\n\t\t\t\t\t  border-radius: 5px;\n\t\t\t\t\t  padding: 16px;\n\t\t\t\t\t  margin: 16px 0\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t\t\t.container::after {\n\t\t\t\t\t  content: \"\";\n\t\t\t\t\t  clear: both;\n\t\t\t\t\t  display: table;\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t\t\t.container img {\n\t\t\t\t\t  float: left;\n\t\t\t\t\t  margin-right: 20px;\n\t\t\t\t\t  border-radius: 50%;\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t\t\t.container span {\n\t\t\t\t\t  font-size: 20px;\n\t\t\t\t\t  margin-right: 15px;\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t\t\t@media (max-width: 500px) {\n\t\t\t\t\t  .container {\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  text-align: center;\n\t\t\t\t\t  }\n\t\t\t\t\t  .container img {\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  margin: auto;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  float: none;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  display: block;\n\t\t\t\t\t  }\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/head>\n\t\t\t\t\t<body>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/srilanka.factcrescendo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Misleading.png\n\" alt=\"Avatar\" style=\"width:120px\">\n\t\t\t\t\t  <p><span>Title:<\/span>Has the Indian Rupee Become the World`s Fourth Most Recognized Currency?
