• The apex bank has already informed that the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) has been notified to facilitate Unified Payments Interface (UPI) integration with all banks and ATM networks.
• The RBI stated that UPI would be used for customer authorization in such transactions; settlement would be through the National Financial Switch (NFS) and ATM networks. The on-us and off-us ICCW transactions shall be worked without levy of any charges other than those prescribed under the circular on Interchange Fee and Customer Charges.
