There cannot, though, be notes in denominations higher than ten thousand rupees in terms of the current provisions of the Reserve Bank of India Act, Coins can be issued up to the denomination of Rs.1000 The Reserve Bank manages currency in India, by deciding on the various denominations, designing of bank notes, including the security features. The Reserve Bank also estimates the quantity of notes that are likely to be needed. Notes fit for circulation are reissued and the others (soiled and mutilated) are destroyed so as to maintain the quality of notes in circulation.

There is also a non-religious interpretation to the sysmbol,describing the four lions as the symbol of ashoka rule in four directions. Just like Buddha, his follower ashoka wanted to spread the message of peace and friendship. Similarly india after she gained independence wanted to spread the same message. So india adopted the emblem of 4 lions after she gained independence. That is why the emblem is used on Indian currency.
