“The Reserve Bank of India will shortly issue Rs 10 denomination banknotes in the Mahatma Gandhi (New) Series, bearing signature of Dr Urjit R. Patel, Governor, Reserve Bank of India,” RBI said.

Speculation that the Central bank would be releasing a new Rs 10 note in a chocolate brown colour were confirmed early Friday evening. “The new denomination has motif of Sun Temple, Konark on the reverse, depicting the country's cultural heritage. The base colour of the note is Chocolate Brown.”

“The note has other designs, geometric patterns aligning with the overall colour scheme, both at the obverse and reverse. All the banknotes in the denomination of Rs10/- issued by the Reserve Bank in the earlier series will continue to be legal tender,” RBI said.
