However, RTP also has a cost benefit, by bringing down the level of investment they must make on acquiring infrastructure. Meanwhile, API-enabled systems and more functionally rich data standards provide invoices and payments that map to the reconciliation needs of the corporate customer. All these factors address merchant or business pain points around payments system efficiency, cost and speed. RTP for merchants: • Collecting payments using mobile and QR codes as the acquiring tools • Sending bulk payment requests to customers • Seamlessly collecting in-app payments • Low infrastructure and transaction costs GOVERNMENT PRIORITIES For India in particular, the government has been integral to the introduction and growth of RTP. Regulators and lawmakers have been motivated to evolve the way money moves around its economy as a way to address the country’s large unbanked population and to take advantage of the habits of the vast number of internet users (the second largest in the world, around half of whom access the internet through their phones). RTP for governments: • Finding clarity in how money moves around the economy • Eliminating money laundering and fake currency • Simple, lower-cost payments disbursement • Collecting taxes in new and more efficient ways 6 THE FIVE-STEP GUIDE TO CAPITALIZING ON THE EVOLUTION OF REAL-TIME PAYMENTS IN INDIA 3 USE INFRASTRUCTURE MODERNIZATION TO HARNESS OPEN BANKING IN INDIA, RTP AND OPEN BANKING ARE INTERLINKED, WITH THE LATTER MAKING ITS INTRODUCTION THROUGH UPI.

An Electronic payment protocol is a series of transactions,at the end of which a payment has been made, using a token issued by a third party.Consumers expect a safe, convenient and affordable globalised payment platform. The security features for such systems are privacy, authenticity and no repudiation. India being a developing country,encourages innovation. A factor behind the rise of digital payments is the Indian Reserve Bank’s recent policy of Demonetization.One of the fintech innovations that have completely revolutionized how payments work in India is the UPI – an instant, real-time payment system developed by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI).Tez, built over the UPI interface, was launched in India in September 2017. Google has rebranded its payment app Google Tez to Google Pay to tap into the growing Indian digital payment space.Google Pay has now become the king of UPI apps.The purpose of this paper is to provide a brief background about the most downloaded finance app, Google Pay andits impacton the Indian Economy.
