In an initiative to spread awareness among public about counterfeit notes, the Reserve Bank of India has launched a website explaining ways to detect fake and counterfeit notes.

The website www.paisaboltahai.rbi.org.in provides a visual presentation on ways to identify counterfeit notes of 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 and 1000 rupee denominations. Website visitors also have an option to download posters of these currency notes, which can be used to identify counterfeit notes.

RBI has also made a downloadable documentary film available on the website on ways to identify counterfeit notes.
