Hi Abhishek,
If you don't need to change it programmatically then:
What you can do is changes the regional settings in windows itself, Then in your program it will also change.
Control panel/Region/Formats tab - additional settings/currency tab - currency symbol dropdown (change from $ to USD).
If you need to change it programmatically then:
I copied this from a Microsoft site but you can create your own class and then change the currency symbol
the site is :

I hope this helps!
using System;
using System.Globalization;
public class SamplesCultureInfo {
public static void Main() {
// Creates and initializes a CultureInfo.
CultureInfo myCI = new CultureInfo("en-US", false);
// Clones myCI and modifies the DTFI and NFI instances associated with the clone.
CultureInfo myCIclone = (CultureInfo) myCI.Clone();
myCIclone.DateTimeFormat.AMDesignator = "a.m.";
myCIclone.DateTimeFormat.DateSeparator = "-";
myCIclone.NumberFormat.CurrencySymbol = "USD";
myCIclone.NumberFormat.NumberDecimalDigits = 4;
// Displays the properties of the DTFI and NFI instances associated with the original and with the clone.
Console.WriteLine( "DTFI/NFI PROPERTY\tORIGINAL\tMODIFIED CLONE" );
Console.WriteLine( "DTFI.AMDesignator\t{0}\t\t{1}", myCI.DateTimeFormat.AMDesignator, myCIclone.DateTimeFormat.AMDesignator );
Console.WriteLine( "DTFI.DateSeparator\t{0}\t\t{1}", myCI.DateTimeFormat.DateSeparator, myCIclone.DateTimeFormat.DateSeparator );
Console.WriteLine( "NFI.CurrencySymbol\t{0}\t\t{1}", myCI.NumberFormat.CurrencySymbol, myCIclone.NumberFormat.CurrencySymbol );
Console.WriteLine( "NFI.NumberDecimalDigits\t{0}\t\t{1}", myCI.NumberFormat.NumberDecimalDigits, myCIclone.NumberFormat.NumberDecimalDigits );
}
}
/*
This code produces the following output.
DTFI/NFI PROPERTY ORIGINAL MODIFIED CLONE
DTFI.AMDesignator AM a.m.
DTFI.DateSeparator / -
NFI.CurrencySymbol $ USD
NFI.NumberDecimalDigits 2 4
