A version lighter than using TikZ:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pict2e}

\DeclareRobustCommand{\kumarsymbol}{%
  \begingroup\setlength{\unitlength}{\fontcharht\font`A}%
  \begin{picture}(.5,1)
  \roundcap
  \put(0,1){\line(2,-1){.25}}
  \put(.25,.875){\line(0,-1){.75}}
  \put(.25,.125){\line(2,-1){.25}}
  \end{picture}%
  \endgroup
}

\begin{document}
A\kumarsymbol B

\LARGE A\kumarsymbol B
\end{document}

enter image description here

One can modify the line thickness and the angles in quite an easy way, see the documentation of pict2e.
