On 8 November 2016, the Government of India announced the demonetisation of all ₹500 and ₹1,000 banknotes of the Mahatma Gandhi Series. It also announced the issuance of new ₹500 and ₹2,000 banknotes in exchange for the demonetised banknotes.[2] Prime Minister Narendra Modi claimed that the action would curtail the shadow economy, increase cashless transactions and reduce the use of illicit and counterfeit cash to fund illegal activity and terrorism.[3][4][5]
The announcement of demonetisation was followed by prolonged cash shortages in the weeks that followed, which created significant disruption throughout the economy.[6][7][8] People seeking to exchange their banknotes had to stand in lengthy queues, and several deaths were linked to the rush to exchange cash.[9][10]
According to a 2018 report from the Reserve Bank of India ₹15.3 lakh crore (15.3 trillion rupees on the short scale) of the ₹15.41 lakh crore in demonetised bank notes, or approximately 99.3%, were deposited in banks, leading analysts to state that the effort had failed to remove black money from the economy.[11][12] The BSE SENSEX and NIFTY 50 stock indices fell over 6% on the day after the announcement.[13] The move reduced the country's industrial production and its GDP growth rate.[14] It is estimated that 1.5 million jobs were lost.[15] The move also saw a significant increase in digital and cashless transactions throughout the country.[16]
Initially, the move received support from some central bankers as well as from some international commentators. The move was also criticised as poorly planned and unfair, and was met with protests, litigation, and strikes against the government in several places across India. Debates also took place concerning the move in both houses of Parliament.[17][18][19]
The consensus is that demonetisation was not the right move to target black money, and was unsuccessful.[20][21] Moreover, it was based on an incorrect understanding of what constitutes black money.[22]
