| Opmerkingen |
Bank of India launched traveler's cheques in rupees partly to capture domestic tourism spending and reduce the use of cash on pilgrimages and long-distance rail journeys — a market that foreign-currency cheques obviously couldn't serve. Specimen cheques from Indian issuers rarely survive in quantity; most were destroyed in-house after internal approval processes, never reaching branch counters.
The 1000-rupee denomination sits at the high end of the domestic traveler's cheque range and likely saw limited uptake outside business travel, given that 1000 rupees represented a significant sum against average wages at the time of issue.
