Pre-colonial India’s states struck coins with designs comparable to the silver Rupee, with variations depending on their place of origin.

British India created a silver standard based on the Rupee in 1825, which was used until the late 20th century. Despite being a British colony, India never accepted the Pound Sterling. Financial institutions failed in 1866 and control of paper money was transferred to the British government, with the presidency banks dissolved a year later.
