The Reserve Bank of India today released its Annual Report for 2010-11. This is a statutory Report of the Central Board of the Reserve Bank that covers (i) the assessment of the macroeconomic performance during 2010-11 and the prospects for 2011-12, and (ii) the working and operations of the Reserve Bank and its financial accounts. The highlights of the Report are as follows:
The stage of payment system development in a country to a large extent depends upon the adoption of technology, introduction of new payment instruments and the confidence of the public in using these payment instruments. In India cash still continues to be the predominant payment mode. This can be gauged from the fact that value of bank notes and coins in circulation as a percentage of narrow money is very high at 60.07% for the year 2009-20102, when compared to other emerging economies like South Africa (18.51%), China(18.83%), Mexico (39.14%). Brazil comes close to India with 52.70% of the value of banknotes and coins in circulation as a percentage of narrow money. This is perhaps a pointer that we have been relatively slow in embracing cashless payment modes and using them as cash substitute. The pre-dominant use of cash could also be attributed to the fact that the process for adoption of non-cash mode of payments started relatively late in the country.
