A book list from 1908, with prices in rupees and anna. The price at top left is ২৷৷৹ (2½ rupees), top right ৸৹ (15 annas).

The Bengali script has a separate set of digits for base-16 fractions:

৴৹ ৵৹ ৶৹ ৷৹ ৷৴৹ ৷৵৹ ৷৶৹ ৷৷৹ ৷৷৴৹ ৷৷৵৹ ৷৷৶৹ ৷৷৷৹ ৷৷৷৴৹ ৷৷৷৵৹ ৸৹

This system was the norm for pricing before decimalization of the currency: ২৲ (₹2), ২৷৷৹ (₹2-8, or 2 rupees 8 annas).
