However, let us tell you that you can get bundles of new notes legally without paying a single rupee extra. So, let us tell you today how you can get a bundle of new 10, 20, or 100 rupee notes for free.

Buy bundles of new notes from the bank.

If you need a bundle of new notes for a wedding or other function and don't want to buy notes sold in the black market, the easiest way is to get a bundle of notes from your nearest bank branch. To get a bundle of new notes for a wedding, you can go to your nearest bank branch and ask the cashier for a bundle of new 10 or 20 rupee notes. However, if you need a large amount of 10, 20, or 100 rupee notes, the bank may ask for your identification proof. So, bring your ID card with you. Remember to visit during the opening hours, as the stock of new notes runs out quickly.

New notes can also be obtained from the RBI issue office

If you need a large quantity of new notes, you can contact the RBI issue office in your city. The RBI supplies new notes to banks periodically. You can visit the RBI's public issue counter and inquire about which banks have recently received new notes.

New notes can also be obtained from currency exchanges.

Bundles of small denomination notes are available at many authorized currency exchange shops, but before purchasing, ensure that the shop is authorized and the notes are genuine. Also, avoid purchasing notes from roadside vendors or unauthorized sellers, as these notes may be counterfeit or torn.

Exchange Old Notes

If you have small notes of 10, 20, or 100 rupees, but they are old or dirty, you can exchange them for new notes from your bank. Most banks have currency chests or branches where clean notes are available in bulk. You can also exchange old notes from the bank.
