Hi Avnish,
Currency Data Type - Allows users to enter a dollar or other currency amount and automatically formats the field as a currency amount. This can be useful if you export data to Excel or another spreadsheet.
Number Data Type - Allows users to enter any number. Leading zeros are removed.

Hi,
Currency field type allows user to enter INR or any other country currency values in the record whereas Number data type allows users to enter numbers.
Hope this helps.
