Here's how to tell if your Rs 500 notes are genuine :

 

The Governor of the Reserve Bank of India's signature appears on the Rs 500 denomination banknotes in the Mahatma Gandhi (New) series. A "Red Fort" motif depicts the country's cultural heritage on the reverse. The note's base colour is stone grey. Other designs and geometric patterns on both the obverse and reverse of the note complement the overall colour scheme.
