The Reserve Bank of India will shortly issue ₹ 50 denomination banknotes in the Mahatma Gandhi Series-2005, with inset letter ‘R’ in both the number panels, bearing signature of Dr. Urjit R.

All the banknotes in the denomination of ₹ 50 issued by the Bank in the past will continue to be legal tender.
