What FACTLY found

The RBI has not directed all banks to stop disbursing ₹500 notes through ATMs by 30 September 2025. Instead, it has instructed banks and White Label ATM Operators (WLAOs) to ensure that 75% of all ATMs dispense ₹100 or ₹200 denomination notes also by 30 September 2025, and 90% by 31 March 2026. The RBI emphasised that this move aims to improve public access to commonly used denominations, which are in high demand for daily transactions.
