What are the rules of the bank?

According to the Exchange Currency Note Rules of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for the year 2017, if you get mutilated notes from ATMs, then you can easily get them replaced. According to the guideline, no government bank (PSBs) can refuse to exchange notes. Banks cannot refuse to accept such notes.

How can notes be exchanged?

Even if a note is torn into several pieces, it can be carried in the bank. Even if any part of the torn note is missing, it can be exchanged. Notes which are completely torn, completely cut or the entire note is burnt, then it can be exchanged only in the issue office of RBI. By the way, normal torn notes can be converted by filling a form in the currency chest of a government bank, private bank or the issue office of RBI.

Do you get full money back?

Whether you will get the full amount of the note or not, it depends on the condition of your note and the note value. In the case of a normal mutilated note, you get full money, but if the note is torn more then you will get some percentage of the money back. If the largest piece of a note of less than Rs 50 value is more than 50 per cent of the normal note, then on exchange of this note, its full value will be found. If the largest piece of a note with a value of more than Rs 50 is 80 percent or more than the normal note, then you will get the full value on exchange of this note.




If the largest piece of a note with a value of more than 50 rupees is between 40 to 80 percent of the normal note, then you will get half the value of that note. If there are two pieces of the same note with a value of more than Rs 50 and these two pieces are up to 40 percent of the normal note, then you will get the value equal to the full value of the note. Half price is not available on exchange of Rs 1, Rs 2, Rs 5, Rs 10 and Rs 20 notes.

When will you not get the money?

If the largest piece of a note with a value of less than Rs 50 is less than 50 percent of the normal note, then no value will be available on the exchange of this note. If the largest piece of a note with a value of more than Rs 50 is less than 40 percent of the normal note, then no value will be available even after the exchange of this note.
