The measure is a part of a continuing effort to arrest the slide in the rupee, which hit a record intra-day low of Rs 61.80 against the dollar on Tuesday.
"Over the last two months, the RBI has instituted several measures to contain the volatility in the foreign exchange market," the central bank said in a statement.
"On a review of the impact of these measures and for effective liquidity management, it has been decided that the RBI will auction Government of India Cash Management Bills for a notified amount of Rs 22,000 crore once every week on Mondays," it said.
The rupee today recovered from an all-time closing low, adding 42 paise to end at 60.88 against the dollar. Yesterday, the rupee closed at 61.30 against the greenback.
