What do you mean "declare" it?

20B9 is just a number (in decimal, 8377). Use it however you want: assign it to a char variable or whatever.

Make sure your computer has (and uses) fonts that have a Rupee symbol.

I'm in New Zealand and using a Windows computer: so all I see is a ? when I print that character from a command line application. I would expect other operating systems (like Linux) to have shells that work properly.

But, again, you need to say what "still I can't get the symbol" actually means. For instance, I tried the following code and only saw a question mark after it was compiled and run without error:

public class Foo {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		char rupeeCh = '\u20B9';
		
		System.out.printf("%d is %c%n", (int)rupeeCh, rupeeCh);
	}
}

If this SSCCE is your problem, others with experience in your locale might be able to say how it is typically dealt with.
