The Government of India 1 Rupee note occupied an unusual constitutional position: it was technically a government currency note, not a Reserve Bank of India issue, which is why it bore the Finance Secretary's signature rather than a Governor's. This distinction persisted for decades and explains the administrative lineage running through the entire 1 Rupee series regardless of design changes.
J.W. Kelly served as Finance Secretary during a transitional period — the Reserve Bank of India had only just been established in April 1935, and the question of which authority would control small denomination notes was still being worked through. The 1 Rupee remained firmly in government hands.
