In India, Indian coins are minted through SPMCIL mints located in Kolkata, Mumbai, Hyderabad and Noida. Every mint mints a unique symbol to identify the origin of the coin.
On various occasions in the past, India faced with scarcity of coins and government has placed orders for foreign mints to fulfill the coin demand in the country.
Currently, India has self sufficient and excessive capacity to produce and supply enough indigenous coins.
