India’s CBDC will be called ‘e₹’, and it can be exchanged one-for-one for fiat currency as it is a digital form of rupee. RBI Headquarters: Mumbai Governor: Shaktikanta Das 4 Deputy Governors: T. Rabi Sankar, MK Jain, MD Patra, M Rajeshwar Rao The Reserve Bank of India defines Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) as a digital form of legal tender issued by a central bank. Simply put, it is a digital form of fiat currency, i.e. The Indian Rupee. As a result, it can be exchanged for fiat currency one for one. CBDC will have all of the advantages that we see with cryptocurrencies and digital forms of payment like it can never be torn, burned, or physically damaged. They are also not physically lost. In comparison to notes, the lifeline of a digital form of currency will thus be indefinite.The Digital Rupee will bring with it another significant advantage in terms of cryptocurrencies which is that it will be governed by a central authority, reducing the volatility risk associated with other digital currencies such as Bitcoin.
