This will take effect from the expiry of the 8th November, 2016.<br \/>\n2. Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN) in circulation in these denominations<br \/>\nare comparatively larger as compared to those in other denominations. For a<br \/>\ncommon person, the fake notes look similar to genuine notes. Use of FICN<br \/>\nfacilitates financing of terrorism and drug trafficking. Use of high denomination<br \/>\nnotes for storage of unaccounted wealth has been evident from cash recoveries<br \/>\nmade by law enforcement agencies from time to time. High denomination notes are<br \/>\nknown to facilitate generation of black money. In this connection, it may be noted<br \/>\nthat while the total number of bank notes in circulation rose by 40% between 2011<br \/>\nand 2016, the increase in number of notes of Rs.500\/- denomination was 76% and<br \/>\nfor Rs.1,000\/- denomination was 109% during this period. New Series bank notes<br \/>\nof Rs.500\/- and Rs.2,000\/- denominations will be introduced for circulation from<br \/>\n10th November, 2016. Infusion of Rs.2,000\/- bank notes will be monitored and<br \/>\nregulated by RBI. Introduction of new series of banknotes which will be distinctly<br \/>\ndifferent from the current ones in terms of look, design, size and colour has been<br \/>\nplanned.<br \/>\n3. The World Bank in July, 2010 estimated the size of the shadow economy for<br \/>\nIndia at 20.7% of the GDP in 1999 and rising to 23.2% in 2007. There are similar<br \/>\nestimates made by other Indian and international agencies. A parallel shadow<br \/>\neconomy corrodes and eats into the vitals of the country\u2019s economy. It generates<br \/>\ninflation which adversely affects the poor and the middle classes more than others.<br \/>\nIt deprives Government of its legitimate revenues which could have been otherwise<br \/>\nused for welfare and development activities.<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"conversation-footer\" class=\"spacer\"><\/div>\n <!-- AdSense Now!
