Issue of ₹ 100
banknotes without inset letter, ascending size of numerals in the number
panels, bleed lines, and enlarged identification mark
The Reserve Bank of India
will shortly issue ₹ 100 denomination banknotes with three additional/
revised features in the
Mahatma Gandhi Series-2005, bearing the signature of
Dr. Raghuram G.Rajan, Governor, Reserve Bank of India, and the year of
printing '2016' printed on the reverse of the banknote. The banknotes will be
without inset letter in the numbering panels.
The design of these
banknotes to be issued now is similar in all respects to the ₹ 100 banknotes in
Mahatma Gandhi Series- 2005 issued earlier. These notes will, however, have
ascending size of numerals in the number panels, bleed lines and enlarged
identification mark, on the obverse. Such ₹ 100 banknotes with all three
features (however, with an inset letter) have already been put into circulation.
The Reserve Bank of India
had also issued ₹ 100 denomination banknotes with the ascending size of
numerals in the number panels but without bleed lines and enlarged
identification mark. These banknotes will remain in circulation concomitantly
with the banknotes being issued now.
All the banknotes in the
denomination of ₹ 100 issued by the Bank in the past will continue to be legal
tender.
