India saw cash withdrawals surge by 610 billion rupees ($6.40 billion) during the first half of April, pushing total currency in circulation to 42.3 trillion rupees. This 11.8% year-on-year increase marks the highest spike in cash demand since the early 2017 post-demonetization period. Sustained cash usage threatens to drain banking system liquidity, potentially forcing the central bank to adjust its market intervention strategy.
