| Additional information |
Kalimullah Shah's reign lasted barely two years before the last Bahmani sultan was deposed by the Barid Shahi, effectively ending a dynasty that had governed the Deccan since 1347. By this point the sultanate existed in name only — real power had fragmented among the five successor Deccan Sultanates for decades. Coins issued under Kalimullah Shah are accordingly scarce, struck by a court that controlled little territory and fewer mints.
The two-thirds gani denomination is itself a relic of earlier Bahmani monetary conventions, retained through the dynasty's collapse.
