A bank whose responsibility is to guide and regulate the banking system of a country is known as its central bank. India's central bank is Reserve bank of India (RBI).RBI was established on 1 April 1935 with its central office in Calcutta which is later on shifted permanently to Mumbai in 1937.RBI was nationalized in 1949.
From its commencement in 1935 to till date, it has been operated by many governors.Here, I am presenting you the list of RBI governors of India with their tenure that will be very helpful from an entrance exam perspective (especially in banking exams).One more important point you should keep in mind is that the 1st governor of RBI was Sir Osborne smith and 1st Indian governor of RBI was Sir C.D. Deshmukh (3rd RBI Governor).
