e-RUPI is widely regarded as India's first step toward establishing a digital currency. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will hold a virtual event at 4:30 p.m. today (Monday, August 2) to introduce e-RUPI, a person and purpose-specific digital payment system. Several programs have been implemented in recent years to ensure that benefits reach the intended beneficiaries, according to the Prime Minister's Office, and the concept of the electronic voucher is another step in the same direction, furthering the objective of good government. Let's take a closer look:

How does e-RUPI operate?

e-RUPI is a cashless and contactless digital payment solution that consists of a QR code or SMS-string based e-voucher given to a beneficiary's mobile phone. Similar to a gift card, a user can then redeem the voucher at the service provider without using a card, digital payment app, or Internet banking access. It essentially connects the service provider and the beneficiaries without the use of any physical interface.

Who's e-RUPI developed?

In a statement, the Government said e-RUPI is a groundbreaking step towards providing the intended beneficiaries with leakproof of provision of health care services. It can also be used for the provision of drug and assistance, for the benefit of mothers and children, for the eradication of tuberculosis, for drugs and diagnostics and for other measures like Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana, Ayushman Bharat Pradhan, for fertilizer subsidies, and so on. The Prime Minister's office also indicated that this model can be used by the corporate sector for their employee welfare and CSR efforts.

Is it safe for e-RUPI?

The NHA has said that the contactless e-RUPI is easy, safe and safe, as the recipients' details would be kept confidential. In addition, the transaction procedure is significantly faster, according to NHA. The required amount is also dependable as the voucher already contains the required amount.

Does e-RUPI in India likely succeed?

The Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) underlines why digital currencies are likely to work effectively in India because there is a growing number of the digital payments, increasing popularity of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. That said, it was still early days and a great deal needs to be done before the success of digital currencies.

How are these bonds going to be issued?

The system was developed by NPCI on its UPI platform and has the issuing entities on-boarded banks. Any corporate or public agency must communicate the data of the individuals and the purpose for which payments must be made to parting banks, which are both private and public lenders. The beneficiaries will be identified by their cellphone numbers and a voucher assigned to the service provider by a bank on behalf of a particular individual will only be supplied.

What does e-RUPI mean, and how does it differ from a digital currency?

The government is already working on establishing the digital currency of a central bank and the introduction of e-RUPI can expose the digital payment infrastructure gaps that are necessary for the future digital currency to succeed. Indeed, e-RUPI is still supported by existing indian rupee, which differs from a virtual currency and closer to a voucher payment system due to the underlying asset and specificity of its function.

Furthermore, the ubiquity of e-RUPI depends on the end-use scenarios in the future.

What may eRupi Digital Currency profit from?

India's e-Rupi Digital Payment System will be full of advantages. Some of these are listed below:

• No physical interference will occur with e-Rupi. It will communicate directly with the service sponsor and beneficiaries to eliminate physical hindrance entirely.

• The user will merely be required to tap and pay as a prepayment voucher.

• Cards, net banks, mobile banking etc. will not be required. The best advantage is that the service provider will only receive the money at that time when payment has been done successfully.

• e-Rupi can also be used by private sectors. They can only collect vouchers from employee social protection programs.
