Four months after the central bank announced the demonetization of Rs 2,000 notes, the date for exchanging notes is now coming to an end.

4. Why did RBI decide to demonetise ₹2000 banknote?

₹2000 denomination notes were introduced in November 2016 under Section 24(1) of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Act, 1934. This was done to rapidly meet the currency requirement of the economy after the withdrawal of legal tender status of all Rs 500 and Rs 1000 banknotes then in circulation. According to Minister of State Pankaj Chaudhary, the objective of introducing the notes was achieved when banknotes of other denominations became available in sufficient quantity. He said, 'Given this and under the 'Clean Note Policy' of RBI, it has been decided to withdraw the notes.
