The Supreme Court will hear the demonetisation matter on Monday.
The apex court had earlier on December 2 adjourned the matter because of problems faced by cooperative banks.
Chief Justice TS Thakur has asked the government to see if something can be done.
"People are suffering, it is a serious problem." he said.
The Centre had submitted an affidavit last week on the demonetisation move in the Supreme Court, saying it is an attempt to unearth black money stashed over the last seven decades.
Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi said that the Centre had filed a reply in the Supreme Court in compliance with the top court's earlier order on the issue.
The Centre in its affidavit told the apex court that demonetisation is a step to reduce ratio of cash transactions, adding the objective is to unearth illegal parallel economy.
