“We are being extremely careful about it because it’s completely a new product, not just for RBI, but globally,” Das said in an interaction with the international business news channel on Thursday. “I think by the end of the year, we should be able to — we would be in a position, perhaps — to start our first trials of India’s Digital Currency,” he added.
