except 1 Re notes and coins which are issued by the
MInistry of Finance.
* It acts as Banker to Indian Government
It is entrusted with the task of receiving money on
behalf of the Government of India and also the task of
making payments on its behalf.
* It is a Banker's Bank
All scheduled banks should keep a certain
percentage of their time and demand liabilities with the
RBI.

policy and regulates the volume and flow of the credit
created by commercial banks.

banks.
Every bank has to get a license from RBI to do banking
