Economic think tank says govt should withdraw proposed UPI charges. Here's why

SUMMARY
A leading economic think tank has urged the government to withdraw proposed charges on UPI transactions, arguing that fees would discourage digital payments adoption. UPI's success relies on its zero-cost model, boosting financial inclusion and a cashless economy. Imposing charges could reverse progress, burden small merchants and consumers, and push users back to cash. The think tank emphasized that UPI is a public digital infrastructure and should remain free to sustain India's digital payment revolution and economic growth momentum.
