India reduces digital payment subsidies to ₹2,000 crore for 2027, raising growth concerns.
India has cut funding for its UPI and RuPay digital payment incentives to ₹2,000 crore for FY27, a 10% reduction from the previous year, despite rising transaction volumes.
The subsidy supports low-value digital transactions under ₹2,000, helping promote financial inclusion, particularly in rural areas.
Industry leaders warn the amount is insufficient to sustain growth, especially with rising costs, and are urging a tiered merchant discount rate—zero for small merchants and 30 basis points for large ones—to ensure long-term viability.
The Reserve Bank of India’s decision not to extend the Payments Infrastructure Development Fund has further raised concerns about future support for digital payment infrastructure.
