HISTORY OF RESERVE BANK OF
INDIA
The Reserve Bank of India was established following the Reserve Bank of India Act
of 1934. Though privately owned initially, it was nationalised in 1949 and since
then fully owned by Government of India. The Reserve Bank of India was founded
on 1 April 1935 to respond to economic troubles after the First World War. The
Reserve Bank of indla was conceptualised based on the guidelines presented by
the Central Legislative Assembly which passed these guidelines as the RBI Act
1934. RBI was conceptualised as per the guidelines, working style and outlook
presented by Dr. B. R. Ambedkar in his book titled "The Problem of the Rupee-
Its origin and its solution" and presented to the Hilton Young Commission. The
bank was set up based on the recommendations of the 1926 Royal Commission
on Indian Currency and Finance, also known as the Hilton-Young
Commission. The original choice for the seal of RBIl was the East India
Company Double Mohur, with the sketch of the Lion and Palm Tree. However, it
was decided to replace the lion with the tiger, the national animal of Ind ia. The
Preamble of the RBI describes its basic functions to regulate the issue of bank
notes, keep reserves to secure monetary stability in India, and generally to
operate the currency and credit system in the best interests of the country. The
Central office of the RBl was established in Calcutta (now Kolkata) but was moved
to Bombay (now Mumbai) in 1937.
The national economy contracted in July 1991 as the Indian rupee was
devalued. The currency lost 18% of its value relative to the US dollar, and
the Narsimham Committee advised restructuring the financial sector bya
temporal reduced reserve ratio as well as the statutory liquidity ratio. New
guidelines were published in 1993 to establish a private banking sector. This
turning point was meant to reinforce the market and was often called neo
liberal. The central bank deregulated bank interests and some sectors of the
financial market like the trust and property markets. This first phase was a success
and the central government forced a diversity liberalisation to diversify owner
structures in 1998.

BANK
Reserve Bank of India also works as a central bank where commercial banks are
account holders and can deposit money. RBI maintains banking accounts of all
scheduled banks. Commercial banks create credit. It is the duty of the RBI to
control the credit through the CRR, bank rate and open market operations. As
banker's bank, the RBI facilitates the clearing of cheques between the commercial
banks and helps the inter-bank transfer of funds. It can grant financial
accommodation to schedule banks. It acts as the lender of the last resort by
providing emergency advances to the banks.

5. Issue of currency
other than the Government of India, the Reserve Bank of India is the sole body
authorised to issue banknotes in India.
The bank also destroys banknotes when they are not fit for circulation. All the
money issued by the central bank is its monetary liability, i.e., the central bank is
obliged to back the currency with assets of equal value, to enhance public
confidence in paper currency. The objectives are to issue banknotes and give the
public adequate supply of the same, to maintain the currency and credit system
of the country to utilise it in its best advantage, and to maintain the reserves.
The RBI mainta ins the economic structure of the country so that it can achieve the
objective of price stability as well as economic development because both
objectives are diverse in themselves.
