The Oriental Bank Corporation — chartered in 1843 but operating under earlier predecessors in Bombay from the late 1830s — was one of the first British overseas banks to issue notes in India, doing so under a system of private banking that preceded the Presidency Banks' eventual dominance. The Bombay branch notes from this period circulated in a commercial environment still navigating the aftermath of the 1840s credit crises that would eventually cripple several exchange banks across the subcontract.
Batho & Bingley, a London security printer working under several successive partnerships during this decade, supplied the printed sheets to Bombay for local completion and issue — a common arrangement that left completion details, signatures, and dates to be added in-branch. At the 1,000 rupee denomination, these were instruments of wholesale trade, not retail currency.
