A History of Demonetisation in India

"A history of demonetization in India"



-- The central government's move to withdraw Rs.500 and Rs.1,000 currency notes in circulation on Tuesday at such short notice may have come as a surprise, but it's not the first time the govt. has demonetized banknotes.

-- Withdrawal of high-denomination notes is a radical measure the govt. normally resorts to in an attempt to counter forgery.

-- It has been done at least twice (2-times) in India's history in the past time. This time, the attempt is to crack down on black money.

-- In January 1946, Rs.1,000 and Rs.10,000 banknotes were withdrawn.

-- In 1954, Rs.1,000; Rs.5,000 and Rs.10,000 notes were reintroduced and were again demonetized by issuing an ordinance on the morning of 16th January, 1978.
