The Reserve Bank of India will shortly be issuing Rs.100/- notes in Mahatma Gandhi series with capital letter `B' inset in both numbering panels bearing the signature of Dr.Bimal Jalan, Governor. Except for this change the design of Rs 100/- notes to be issued now is similar in all respects to those issued earlier in the Mahatma Gandhi series. All Rs.100/- denomination notes issued by the Bank in the past will continue to be legal tender.
