| Opmerkingen |
The Government of India's 10 Rupees notes of this series were printed at the India Security Press, Nasik Road, which had been established partly to reduce British India's dependence on metropolitan printers during wartime. A note dated 30 April 1945 was issued in the final weeks before the end of the Second World War in Europe, when the colonial currency apparatus was still operating under wartime printing constraints and distribution pressures across a subcontinent moving rapidly toward partition-era instability.
The Pick reference P#A10 places this as an earlier design type pressed into extended service well beyond its original period — a not uncommon pattern when fresh plate preparation was deprioritized during the war.
