Axis Bank Ltd.

Axis Bank has introduced UPI interoperability functionality on its CBDC app (Axis Mobile Digital Rupee). This is a part of the Reserve Bank of India's ongoing CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency) initiative.

Additionally, this capability will help merchants to embrace the acceptance of Digital Rupee payments on their existing QR codes, eliminating the need of mandatory on boarding.
