You can assign a stylesheet to the Tax Invoice in options. (it uses the Default 
stylesheet, by default)

So via Edit > Stylesheets you can either specify a different font for the 
Default stylesheet that contains the symbol, or add a new stylesheet just for 
the Tax Invoice. If you’re changing fonts on Default, you can do so just for 
Numbers if you like. (leaving the rest of the fonts assignments alone)

I also noticed that the Tax Invoice options contain a Custom Css block.

You might instead be able to change the font just for numbers there if you can 
find the class you need to target. (probably open the invoice in a browser and 
use the built-in inspector) This method would allow you to always get the Rupee 
symbol no matter what stylesheet is selected.

Adrien
