 If you have Fedora 14 installed then you can use rupee symbol by
enabling it using following steps
1) Go to System-> Preferences -> Keyboard
2) Click on Layouts tab and then on Add button
3) Select Country as "India" and Variants as "India English with RupeeSign"
4) Then on same Layouts tab, click on "Options" button
5) search for "key to choose 3rd level" and enable checkbox "Right Alt"

Above steps will give you the same English keyboard with rupee symbol
added. Once you done with above steps, switch xkb map from US to IND
and you can use rupee symbol by typing Alt_R+4 keys.

In case, If you don't want to use xkb map  "India English with
RupeeSign" and also want to use rupee symbol in m17n maps then you
need to enable it globally using following steps
1) Go to System-> Preferences -> Keyboard
2) Then on the Layouts tab, click on "Options" button
3) search for "key to choose 3rd level" and enable checkbox "Right Alt"
4) also search for "Adding currency signs to certain keys" and enable
checkbox "Rupee on 4"

You can type rupee symbol using Alt_R+4 keys anywhere in desktop applications.

Regards,
Parag.
