1. Migrating PhonePe to India 1B $ in useless tax

2. Like that stupid separation of PhonePe from Flipkart ~0.7B $

3. Now this 3.5B$ just to increase its stake when it was already a majority owner! What's going on?

Why does Walmart keep pumping soo much money even with unnecessary things with Flipkart?

Walmart owns majority share in both PhonePe and Flipkart, PhonePe is a separate entity from Flipkart, but why is Flipkart itself entering into UPI ecosystem when it is dominant in e-commerce and PhonePe is dominant in UPI and payments.

Why is Walmart letting both organisations go against one another by building Flipkart UPI seems weird and waste by burning money.

Is it hoping Flipkart UPI to get market share from Amazon Pay or something else is at play here ?

Why not pitch PhonePe inside Flipkart app heavily instead ?

Why Flipkart built UPI ?

Software Engineer

Why do this when there are no UPI fees and an abundance of UPI apps already?

No hate. Just curious why they’d build this

Post Paytm debacle, government and RBI is wary of duopoly in UPI space.

30% cap on UPI apps ain't working as well.

What do u think about future of upi and digital payment?

As the deadline capping UPI Apps' market share to 30% approaches, the central government has taken a stance to not actively intervene in its enforcement or deferral.

What will happen to these startups who allow gold investments now? 😂

The end of Jar

Was reading a thread where people were saying don't be in shock if Ambani/Reliance starts making move after RBI's action on Paytm. I initially thought it to be a meme. Now I am just curious. 

Is the system really fair to allow such moves by the rivals after penalising them?
Or is the system that rigged to make sure their friends can get all the business to technically get the favors, funds, etc? 
Any thoughts on this? 
Whether is it too cruel and unfair that system just can't come into action to stop such moves otherwise how the startups anyway could rival the innovation that happens in the West if our own system anyway is there to cripple in such scenarios or do you think it's all fair in the name of business (you donot follow regulations, you will have to suffer eventually)? 
PS:- This is just to have a healthy discussion without any biases intended, with no political agenda in mind. I hope you'll keep the discussion healthy and interesting.

PhonePe CEO Delays IPO Plans Due to UPI Market Share Uncertainty

- NPCI is expected to set a 1.2% interchange fee for pre-sanctioned credit lines on UPI, with a circular likely next week.
- The credit line will not be available for person-to-person transfers, focusing instead on merchant transactions.
- Interchange fees are crucial for covering the risk and interest for the capital deployed by credit issuers.
- Negotiations are ongoing between NPCI, banks, and UPI apps regarding revenue sharing, with TPAPs like PhonePe and Google Pay likely to get 0.08% commission.
- The product has faced delays due to a lack of strong business cases, but NPCI mandates may drive adoption.

NPCI Likely to Announce 1.2% Interchange for Credit Line on UPI

RBI is a big bully, everybody knows that. RBI has bullied the likes of HDFC, ICICI and a lot of fintech startups. All it wants is that these folks are compliant with the rules.

RBI is one of the most stringent Central banks in the world. This also ensures a lot of financial stability in the country, sometimes overdoing the regulations.

Once you fix the systems and comply with RBI, business is back to usual. This has been the trend in all the notices that have been sent across to all the different companies. Paytm should be no different.

Paytm has a book value of 205. In case the stock hits a few more lower circuits, in the words of Ashneer Grover, it'll be a "Screaming buy".

Every good opportunity comes with a lot of risk. The primary risk here is that Paytm doesn't get its act straight and RBI at the end of February imposes the actions that are mentioned in the circular.
 Next line in such a case. Well the money is lost but if they fix the necessary things within time then it's going to be a jackpot.

Catching falling knives is never easy, and it's bound to hurt you, but hey, "Risk He Toh Ishq He".

Next lower circuit is ~487rs 
The one after it is ~390rs.

I think anything under 500 is great price without the RBI impact. If it hits the circuit tomorrow, I'll start buying on Monday. If it doesn't, well, salary is already credited, so it's time for some risky investment.

PhonePe crosses PayTM in terms of MAU

GooglePay ke interview mein I told them that unlike in GooglePay the money getting stuck issue doesn’t come in PhonePe so that’s a great area of improvement. They took it to their heart and didn’t select me 😂
