<script async="" src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>Rs 2000 notes were introduced in India by the RBI after Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government decided to demonetise Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes that constituted 86% of the total currency in circulation.
The new pink Rs 2000 note was issued in order to remonetise the Indian economy at a fast pace.
In regards Rs 200 notes, in a Gazzette notification, the Ministry of Finance on August 23, mentioned, “In exercise of the powers conferred by sub-section (1) of section 24 of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934 and on the recommendations of the Central Board of Directors of the Reserve Bank of India, the Central Government hereby specifies the denomination of bank notes of the value of two hundred rupees.''
News agency ANI on July 04, 2017 tweeted that the decision to introduce Rs 200 notes was taken by RBI with consultation of Finance Ministry in the month of March 2017. Also, RBI has already placed printing orders for the note.

<script async="" src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>According to reports, RBI is likely to put the proposed Rs 200 bank notes in circulation by the end of August or in the first week of September.
However, Rs 200 notes will not only be the new thing added in India's currency book soon. RBI had already launched the new look of Rs 50 notes in Mahatma Gandhi series on August 18, 2017.
It said, “The Reserve Bank of India will shortly issue Rs 50 denomination banknotes in the Mahatma Gandhi (New) Series, bearing signature of Dr Urjit R. Patel, Governor, Reserve Bank of India. The new denomination has motif of Hampi with Chariot on the reverse, depicting the country’s cultural heritage. The base colour of the note is Fluorescent Blue."

The new Rs 50 has other designs, geometric patterns aligning with the overall colour scheme, both at the obverse and reverse.
All the banknotes in the denomination of Rs 50 issued by the RBI in earlier series will continue to be legal tender.
At present, India had small denomination currency notes of Rs 1, Rs 2, Rs 5, Rs 10, Rs 20, old Rs 50, Rs 100 and high denomination notes of Rs 500 and Rs 2000. 
While the impact of demonetisation on currency-in-circulation (CIC) has been minimized with over 87% of cash now 'remonetised'. 
CIC as on August 11, 2017, stands nearly Rs 15.70 lakh crore compared to Rs 9.38 lakh crore in December 2016 (end of demonetisation) and Rs 17.97 lakh crore till November 04, 2017.
