Answer 1

Since you've added this in the database instead of through the admin, it's likely that the cache file still exists for the currencies. Go to the /system/cache/ directory and find any files starting cache.currency and delete them. Alternatively just edit the currency in the store admin. This is actually how you should do this, not mess around with the database tables

Answer 2

It works to me Steps 1. Go to System -> Localisation -> Currencies

2. Add Currency Title as Rupees

3. Code as INR

4. Symbol Left as ₹

5. Decimal Places as 2

6. Value as 1.00000000

7. Status as Enable

Now, you need to Go to

1. System -> Settings -> Your Store -> Action -> Edit

2. Get Local and Edit

3. Country as India

4. Region / State as select any state of india

5. Language as English

6. Administration Language as English

7. Currency as Rupees

8. Auto Update Currency as Yes

9. Define your Length and Weight class as you required

Again Got to

1. System -> Localisation -> Currencies

2. You will get Rupees as Default

3. Delete USD and

4. Click on your Dashboard that is on the left bar

5. You will find setting symbol on right side top corner.

6. Click on that and you will get CACHE

7. Click on OFF and on Action do REFRESH

You are done.

Thanks.
