Digital payments across country rose as the RBI’s Digital Payments Index (DPI) stood at 493.22 as of March 2025, as compared to 445.50 in March 2024, up 10.71 per cent. DPI was 465.33 in September 2024. Digital Payments Index measures the adoption of online transactions. The increase in RBI-DPI index was driven by significant growth in parameters viz.
