First they spent crores on calibrating the ATM machines for the 2000 rupee note and now they would eventually need to redo it.

I still wonder why there is still no 1000 rupee note, apart from that the quality of 2000 rupees note is so bad that they would more or less disintegrate in the next couple of years!

Seriously insane moves.
I think demonetisation qualifies for "Debacle of the century" w.r.t. India. People trusted the govt on it, and few even lost their lives. In the end, the move proved to be a damp squib.

Wouldn't make a big difference in the larger context or hoarding/transacting unaccounted money. Indian government really needs to strengthen the banking systems and remove these larger denominations. USA, even with its fragile banking system, has way more people using a card than notes

Rs 2000 note was only for temporary period. As of now the circulation is reducing and will stop naturally.

Lets take a scenario. A person has Rs 1 Lakh divides in to 10 parts of Rs 10k each

Now lets say RS 2000 was not there but only Rs 1000:

Day 1: A person would deposit 10 notes of Rs 1000 so Rs 10000 in morning, and then withdraw the same value by evening.
Day 2: He would deposit 2nd Bundle of another notes of same value, but he will show in his IT accounts that he deposited the same notes he withdrew on Day 1. He still has the notes with him
Day 2 Evening: the person would again withdraw 10 x Rs 1000 so at the end of Day 2 he has Rs 80K old notes and 20K new notes
Day 3: Now the withdraw limit is Rs 20K, and the person does same and he has now Rs 1 Lakh all new notes of Rs 1K each

However, to the IT, the person has shown that he was having only Rs. 10,000/- as black money initially (i.e. one bundle of 10 Notes of Rs. 1000) and he has rotated the same Rs. 10,000/- by depositing it into Bank account in the morning and withdrawing it in the evening and again depositing the same on next day and so on.

Now if New Rs. 2000 Rupee Note instead of Rs. 1000:

Day 1: Now the person goes to deposit Rs 10000 of 10 notes, Evening he withdraws 5 X 2000 new notes
Day 2: He would deposit the 2nd Bundle of 10x1000 old notes and shows the IT that he deposited same bundle he withdrew on day 1. But since te notes are in new currency he cannot do the same again and will get caught

Because the Bank slip on Day 2 submitted to bank shows deposition of 10 Notes of Rs. 1000 each whereas the Govt knows that person could never have withdrawn on Day 1 any note of Rs. 1000 because they were never Printed

Example also gives you an explanation as to why the withdrawal limit is kept so low because the above method can still be done with Rs. 500 note however, the incentive would be less because the person cannot withdraw more than Rs. 10000/- in a day and even if he withdraws Rs. 10,000/-, there is every possibility that Banks shall give the person, 2000 Rupee note. So now that person cannot follow the above method.

Thats why @Bapun Raz bro Rs 1000 notes will not come.

I disagree with everyone above. Demonetisation was a great success. People nowadays uses wallets and cards for making transactions. Before demonetisation everyone used cash. I hope they bring a demonetisation 2.0 before general elections. So that Indian economy becomes cashless economy. Government should set limit of Rs 1000 per month for a cash transactions a month this time. And also encourage parents to give their children debit and credit card instead of cash.
 
All bank employees got good commission from demonetization.😊😊 Govt gave a opportunity to convert black money to white money.😊 Thanks to modi
Please do not blame the bank employees. They have to work till 12 AM,on saturday, Sunday.
They are just scapegoats.
It is the ruling party members who got commission not bank employees.

Some political people got huge amount of cashes from banks without standing in queue which means commission.😊
 
I don't think so.can't blame the govt fully.everyone knew that bank employees do favour for big business men and politician.

Because under severe pressure from Ministers and other influential people in Govt.
