New one rupee notes with predominantly pink and green on obverse and reverse in combination with other colours will be soon put into circulation.
The notes bearing the rupee symbol have been printed by the Government of India.
At present, one rupee coins are minted. Printing of one rupee notes was discontinued in 1994 but was relaunched in 2015.
“The Reserve Bank of India will soon put into circulation currency notes in one rupee denomination,” the central bank said in a statement.
The note will bear signature of Shaktikanta Das, Secretary in the Ministry of Finance. Other currency notes bear the signature of the RBI Governor.
The numbering will be in black at the right bottom of the note.
