Exchanging Soiled or Defective Currency Notes: Rules and Procedures

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) sets specific guidelines for exchanging soiled or defective currency notes. Individuals can exchange up to 20 notes with a maximum daily value of ₹5,000 at bank branches free of charge. However, for larger amounts or a number of notes exceeding 20 pieces, banks may levy service charges and follow specific verification and precaution measures.
