What are Star Series notes?
The star (*) sign is added between the prefix and the serial number on notes in the star series, according to the RBI's explanation.

This explanation was provided following a heated discussion on social media about the legitimacy of the star signs on these notes.

According to the official statement, the RBI stated that these notes are produced in packets of 100 and that the sign indicates that they have been reissued or changed.

"The Star (*) symbol is inserted in the number panel of a banknote that is used as replacement for defectively printed banknotes in a packet of 100 pieces of serially numbered banknotes," the bank OF INDIA' target='_blank' title='reserve bank of india-Latest Updates, Photos, Videos are a click away, CLICK NOW'>reserve bank of india stated in a news statement.
