India to pilot plastic banknotes to combat counterfeiting and wear

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The Reserve Bank of India is planning to pilot the issuance of 10 and 20 rupee plastic banknotes, with a tender for specialized materials already released. This initiative aims to address the frequent damage to paper currency due to heavy circulation and climate conditions, and to combat the rise of counterfeit notes, particularly the 500 rupee denomination. If the pilot is successful, the use of plastic currency may be expanded. AI

    India's central bank plans to pilot issue plastic banknotes

    印度多家媒体援引消息人士的话报道，印度储备银行，即印度央行计划试点阶段发行面额10卢比和20卢比的塑料钞票，如果试点顺利，或将进一步推广。印度央行下属的货币印制公司发布招标公告，为印制塑料钞票所需的特殊材料招标，投标截止日期为8月18日。由于流通频繁和气候因素，印度每年大量破损纸币被回收销毁。此外，印度市场上近年来大面额的假币增多，尤其是500卢比的伪钞，使用塑料钞票也有望提高防伪性能。（央视财经）
