RBI panel proposes single platform for bill payments

08 May 2013 Evaluate

In order to make bill paying system convenient in the country, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) committee headed by G Padmanabhan, has proposed to set up a single platform for all direct bill payments. The proposed Indian bill payment system aims to bring all banks, billers and customers on one platform through the Government Internal Revenue Order (GIRO) system.

The GIRO model will enable payment of dues such as taxes, insurance premium, utility payments, university fees, school fees and examination fees, etc. Further, the GIRO will enable the setting up of a centralized infrastructure bringing all the billers and banks to the bill platform through aggregators. In a GIRO payment system, up to three banks collecting bank, payer bank and the payee bank may be involved and the customers can access the payment channel through any available outlet.

As per the central bank, over 30.8 billion bills are generated each year in the top 20 cities in the country. While cash and cheque collections constitute over 90% of the transactions and electronic payments continue to be low.  The RBI committee has also suggested setting up a separate organization to operate and manage it on commercial lines. Currently, direct bill payments are limited to only some utility providers and lack interoperability, customer convenience and access to electronic payment modes.
