The National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) has actually asked financial institutions and repayment company (PSPs) to get rid of UPI IDs gotten in touch with non-active mobile numbers from April 1. Users with such mobile numbers will not have the ability to utilize repayment applications such as Google Pay, Paytm, PhonePe, and so on
Why is NPCI doing something about it versus non-active numbers?
According to NPCI, non-active mobile numbers connected to UPI IDs are a safety and security danger. Users that alter or deactivate their mobile numbers without upgrading their financial institution information might possibly deal with safety and security threat as reassigned numbers might still be connected to previous UPI accounts. If such numbers are provided to someone else in the future, defrauders might abuse them. To prevent this scenario, NPCI has actually asked financial institutions and repayment applications such as Google Pay, PhonePe, and Paytm to get rid of non-active numbers from the UPI network.
