ANI Coimbatore (Tamil Nadu) [India]

A private bank here is offering soft drinks and snacks to customers waiting in line to exchange or deposit their high-end value currency notes.

The Catholic Syrian Bank near the Collectorate is offering soft drinks and snacks to the people.

According to investment firm Ambit, India's black economy accounts for 20 percent of gross domestic product (GDP).
