The P#49 series ran across a decade that saw Mauritius consistently ranked among Africa's top-performing economies, though the note itself predates the island's formal adoption of polymer for its lower denominations — that shift came later and never touched the 25-rupee face value, which was discontinued rather than upgraded.
Thomas De La Rue's involvement here is unsurprising; they have held Mauritian printing contracts almost without interruption since independence. The signature pairing of Basant Roi as Governor with Gujadhur as Second Governor reflects the central bank's dual-signatory convention, unchanged across multiple series.
