If you still have some Rs 2000 notes with you, don’t worry.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has said Rs 2,000 banknotes continue to be legal tender.
On May 19, 2023, the RBI had announced the withdrawal of Rs 2,000 denomination banknotes from circulation.
Public can deposit and/or exchange the Rs 2,000 banknotes at the 19 RBI offices in the country.
RBI said that 97.38% of the withdrawn notes have returned to the system.
RBI said that as on December 29, 2023, Rs 2,000 notes worth Rs 9,330 crore are still in circulation as against Rs 3.56 lakh crore on May 19, 2023.
Public and entities holding such notes were initially asked to either exchange or deposit them in bank accounts by September 30.
The deadline was later extended to October 7. Deposit and exchange services at bank branches were discontinued on October 7.
Starting October 8, individuals have been provided with the choice of either exchanging the currency or having the equivalent sum credited to their bank accounts at the 19 offices of the RBI.
The 19 RBI offices depositing/exchanging the bank notes are in Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Belapur, Bhopal, Bhubaneswar, Chandigarh, Chennai, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Jammu, Kanpur, Kolkata, Lucknow, Mumbai, Nagpur, New Delhi, Patna and Thiruvananthapuram.
The Rs 2,000 bank notes were introduced in November 2016 following the demonetisation of the then-prevailing Rs 1,000 and Rs 500 bank notes.
