Walmart and Google rules 90% UPI transaction

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?

Duopoly is fine...

Telecom Airlines and many other sectors are duopoly driven.

Key is foreign players driving UPI engine which runs on India's npci tech stack

What a BS regulation to keep market cap at 30%. How are they supposed to do it? Uninstall their UPI app from my phone?

I didn't get the referrence for Walmart and Google here. Captain pls explain? I remember sometime back, PhonePe lauched the ad saying how they're the leaders in payment industry by leading the market share ~ 40% or something. So this TPAP regulations of 30% restriction was not in picture back then?

This is why PayTM was so arrogant and trolled RBI as they thought that RBI won't hurt them as they would want an Indian company to be one the largest share holder of the market.

Why Flipkart built UPI ?

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.
