Temporary Cash holding limits at currency chest

In view of massive quantity of Specified Bank Notes (SBNs) accumulated in currency chests, RBI has revisited to its old instruction (circular. DCM (CC) No. 2598/03.02.05/2009-10 dated October 27, 2009) and advised banks that  SBNs deposited in the currency chests, since November 10, 2016 will be considered as part of the chest balance in the soiled note category but such deposits will not be reckoned for calculating Chest Balance Limit / Cash Holding Limit.

RBI communiqué further clarified that a review of the above will be taken up in the second fortnight of February 2017.
