    The Impact of Demonetization on Indian


    Economy

    Demonetization is the withdrawal of a particular form of currency from circulation. Through


    demonetization the old currency is replaced by the new currency or a currency circulation is
    blocked. Demonetization is one of the most trending topics which occupied the columns of
    Indian Newspaper on last 2016.

    On November 8, 2016 when everyone sat struck to their television eagerly waiting for the
    announcement of winner of the presidential elections for USA, the Prime Minister of India
    Narendra Modi announced on television that Rs 1,000 and Rs.500 notes will no longer be legal
    tender from midnight that day. However, this wasn’t the first time, this has happened, in 1946
    when the Reserve Bank of India demonetized the then under-circulation Rs 1,000 and Rs
    10,000. Higher denomination banknotes of Rs 1,000, Rs 5,000 and Rs 10,000 were introduced
    eight years later in the year 1954. These very notes were also demonetized by Morarji Desai
    Government in 1978.

    The announcement of demonetization tore the country into three categories, while some
    applauded the decision appreciating, calling it a bold decision others became hardcore
    protestor, while some chose to remain fence sitters. The objectives behind this move are to
    attempt to make India a corruption free country, to curb black money, to control escalating price
    rise, to stop fund flow to illegal activity and to make the people accountable for every rupee the
    possess and pay income tax return. Corruption in India is not merely an evil of the society but
    an accepted part of every person’s life in the country. Removing that part with changing
    currency of “cashless economy” has come up on idea of corruption and black money free India
    and bringing transparency in the transactions. According to transparency international
    corruption India, even though India is still the most corrupt country in Asia, corruption related
    reports have reduced by 10% since 2015. India rating and research had concluded that only
    12% of the ill-gotten money could be extracted with the idea of demonetization while 88% of
    black money is still in circulation in Indian markets. It is very difficult to predict the effect of this
    move on the economy and the citizens in one sentence. Indian economy will see a big boom. It
    will abridge the gap between have and have not. However there may be so difficulties for couple
    of months but these conveniences shall be temporary and hardship is their short term may yield
    benefits in the long term.
