350 Rupees Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji

Issued to mark the 400th birth anniversary of Guru Tegh Bahadur, the ninth Sikh Guru, who was executed in Delhi in 1675 on the orders of the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb after refusing to convert to Islam — an act of martyrdom that reshaped the trajectory of the Sikh faith and directly preceded the militarization of the community under his son, Guru Gobind Singh. The ₹350 denomination is non-standard by design, chosen specifically for commemorative issues tied to significant anniversaries, a practice the Reserve Bank has used selectively since the ₹150 Gandhi sesquicentennial coin in 2019.
