Why is RBI withdrawing the ₹ 2,000 notes?

The RBI has not given any official reason for withdrawing the ₹ 2,000 notes. However, some experts have speculated that it could be a move to curb black money, counterfeiting, and hoarding of high-value notes. The ₹ 2,000 note was introduced in November 2016 after the demonetization of ₹ 500 and ₹ 1,000 notes.

How can you exchange your ₹ 2,000 notes?

The RBI has also said that an exchange facility for ₹ 2,000 notes up to ₹ 20,000 at a time would be available from May 23, 2023.
