What is a "new indian rupee font"?

Did you correctly set NLS settings?

rupee foradian is the font to get new Indian rupee symbol. See the Image.
@ OP
What happened when you type
'`' {Just below Esc key on keyboard} and change the font to "rupee foradian" in your form.
(Hope you placed/Inserted Rupee_Foradian.TTF) into your /windows/fonts folder properly).

@ ramoradba-- I have already inserted the rupee foradian font in my windows and is working fine in word / excel. i did type this '`', but it remains as '`' and does not converts into the rupee font.

hi,

i does work perfectly fine in ms word. but only when i try to use it forms and reports it does not work. i have installed the rupee foradian font in windows/ font. let me know how to get it in forms and reports

I also checked the unicode and this symbol is not available in unicode. could you also pl let me know how to use the unistr. i could figure out how it works as long as the columns are of single digit. i am not sure how to use it when columns are from 11 to 19 and 1a to 1f

thanks in advance

A tool can display a character only if it supports it. I bet Forms and Reports do not know it.
Your character should be in Unicode otherwise ms word could not be able to display it.
