The Reserve Bank of India will pilot tokenized certificates of deposit (CDs), digitizing traditional short-term debt instruments on its wholesale central bank digital currency (CBDC-W) platform. Select commercial banks will participate in this pilot, aimed at improving market transparency, settlement efficiency, and traceability. The move represents a step toward integrating tokenized assets into India’s financial ecosystem and reflects the RBI’s commitment to modernizing money market infrastructure through blockchain-based systems.
