The objective of the mission, as part of Digital Payments Awareness Week (DPAW) 2023, is to make every citizen in the country opt for digital payments.
Das said he expected more countries to join India in linking their payments on a real-time basis, like the one with Singapore's PayNow, which started last month.
"Currently the number of transactions done through UPI is 26 crore (260 million) per day. The system has the capacity to handle 100 crore (one billion) transactions per day. So the system is geared to onboard new customers into the UPI platform," Das said.
On March 1, there were 300 million transactions through the UPI.
