  2. K L Gopalakrishnan says:

    Notification has not been updated in the official site of department of economic affair till now. Further RBI has to come up the procedure for deposits more than Rs.5000/- once in individuals account.

  3. Surya Chhabria says:

    They will have to approach RBI and give the declaration and then get the amount exchanged till 31st March, 2017. The provision is there in the notification dated 08/11/2016

  4. kamal gupta says:

    From this notification, it is clear now that govt was not ready for implementation of the demonitasation. If any person who deposited the old currency without any limit will be given chance of depoisted inspite of the due date of 30 dec 2016 but a person who did not depoisited the old currency with genuine reason will be in hardship despite the original due date. Any notification if required should come after due date.

  5. pardeep rana says:

    It is not there on the RBI web site, it is shameful for the web like tax guru, publishing the same . However It would have been done in real by the RBI, it would be good step, it will curb on the people exchanging/converting the currency illegally.

  6. Mahendra Kr Chowdhary says:

    The restriction of Rs.5,000/- appears to be Hoax, since no such notification at the official site of RBI till now on 19.12.2016 up to 11:10 AM.
    ONE CAN VERIFY AT RBI SITE IN NOTIFICATIONS

    This Notification should have been brought in very early., this notification will kill the game of Exchange of New notes with Old notes in grey market., definetly therewill be hardship to Genuine persons., but what else can be done looking into the huge Grey Market was done to convert old Notes(Black Money) with the New Notes.,

  9. Sajinder Grover says:

    Really surprised with day to day notifications. Can someone clarify what about the persons who are on visit to meet their children in foreign country are having the indian currency with them in denominations of 500 & 1000. They expect to go back by February 2017, how they are going to deposit that amount.

  10. SUNIL KUMAR GUPTA says:

    Good step, because There is no restriction how much old currency you can deposited in bank after 8th of Nov, but I have deposited 2nd time Rs 50000/- and 3rd time Rs 25000/- , the question raised from where I have received the old currency and why I have received old currency after 8/11/2016
