Fresh Notes/Coins from Press/Mint pass Press on to the banks/public only through RBI Mint Issue Offices offices – hence crossmovement

Challenges of Distribution • Size of the country and volume of currency • Security and availability of railway wagons when required • Political boundaries defining jurisdiction of Issue Offices lead to sub-optimal logistics • Cross movement of currency is unavoidable

Challenges of Distribution (contd) • Security- police is preoccupied with other activities of priority • Private security is unavailable and not favoured • Transport through railways involves enormous coordination of logistics • Privatization of transport – introduced recently in respect of coins only

Meeting the challenge of distribution

• The volume should be contained within sustainable levels by

– Shift in printing from lower to next higher denominations (a perceptible shift already visible) – Coinise Rs.10 denomination – Try out other substrate for printing – coating of paper or polymer, although currently there is no plan to introduce polymer notes.

• Banks have been compelled to dispense with the age-old practice of stapling of notes • Sorting of notes to get decentralized through banks or processing centres
