| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The denomination "Rs. 5" appears at upper right, beneath the cypher "G · R · I" in a cartouche at top centre, all within an intricate geometric border of interlocking key-fret and arrow-head patterns. The central field carries the value expressed in eight Indian vernacular scripts arranged in vertical sequence, against a multicolour guilloche underprint in green and ochre tones. The inscription "GOVERNMENT · OF · INDIA" is set in a horizontal panel along the lower margin. |

The Government of India's 5 Rupee notes of this period were a direct product of wartime financial pressure — the First World War disrupted silver supplies severely enough that paper substitutes for coin denominations became unavoidable policy rather than preference. India had long resisted low-denomination paper currency, and public acceptance remained grudging well into the 1920s.
De La Rue printed the series in London throughout the entire run. The long issuance window — spanning fourteen years — means date varieties exist across multiple signing officials, and the Controller of Currency signatures are the primary distinguishing factor between early and late examples.
