RBI has introduced a new design for ten rupee note. The new note will have the same height of 63mm as the current ten rupee note but the width will be 123 mm – slightly lesser than the 137 mm width of the existing note.
Besides the colour and the size, another main difference is that the reverse of the note will carry a motif of the Konark Sun Temple. At present, the ten rupee note carries images of Indian fauna.
The RBI said that it will shortly be putting out the new note into circulation bearing the signature of governor Urjit Patel. The note has other designs, geometric patterns aligning with the overall colour scheme, both at the obverse and reverse. Existing banknotes in the denomination of Rs 10 issued by the RBI in the earlier series will continue to be legal tender.

Like the other new series notes, the Rs 10 note will have the year of printing of the note on the left, the ‘Swachh Bharat’ logo with slogan, and language panel. These notes are expected to be put into circulation by the RBI and banks through their branches.
Meanwhile, RBI has asked banks to hasten recalibration of their ATMs so that the newly introduced Rs 200 notes can be put into circulation.
Since demonetization, the RBI has come out with a new design for five denominations. While the new Rs 2,000 and Rs 500 notes were introduced immediately after demonetisation, RBI had recently introduced the new Rs 200 and Rs 50 notes. While in denominations of Rs 200 and above only new designs are in circulation, the older notes would continue to exist in the case of Rs 10 and Rs 50 notes.
