TL;DR Summary

About 80% of the recently withdrawn 2000-rupee notes in India have been deposited into bank accounts rather than exchanged for smaller denominations, according to six public and private sector bankers. The trend is expected to boost bank deposits, with the State Bank of India receiving INR170bn ($2.06bn) in value terms in the first week since the exercise began on 23 May. Of this, 82% was deposited into accounts, while the rest was exchanged.
