Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) introduces new Rs 100 banknote

The Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) announced on Thursday that a new series of the Rs 100 banknote has entered circulation. The updated note maintains the same color and dimensions as the previous version but features a Nepal map and the Ashoka Pillar in the center, along with a latent image of Mayadevi on the left. Key security elements include a two-millimeter security thread that shifts from red to green when tilted and a tactile black dot to aid the visually impaired. The note carries the signature of former governor Maha Prasad Adhikari and displays its serial number in Nepali.
