Integration of Unified Payment Interface Boosts Distribution of RuPay Credit Cards
- Integration of the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) with RuPay credit cards has significantly boosted the distribution and issuance of these domestic cards.
- Around 30% of new credit cards issued in the country now are on the RuPay network.
- In comparison, RuPay cards accounted for around 5% of the new credit card issuance in 2022-23, before the Reserve Bank of India allowed linking UPI with these cards.
- American card payment majors Visa and Mastercard dominate the domestic credit card market.
- There are certain concerns among banks regarding losing their valuable credit card customers to the payment applications that dominate UPI.
Key Highlights :
- Shifting Trends: Major banks are actively issuing RuPay credit cards in response to customer demand, including co-branded cards now running on the RuPay platform.
- Challenges and Concerns:Third-Party Apps: Banks are concerned about losing customer visibility when credit cards are linked with UPI on third-party apps like Google Pay and PhonePe.
- Cross-Selling: These apps may leverage customer data to cross-sell products like insurance and personal loans, potentially reducing banks’ direct engagement with customers.
- This is a challenge banks are facing across all their UPI payments, given consumers are using their bank accounts for payments but transacting on third party apps, effectively resulting in banks losing sight of their customers to a large extent.
- Regulatory Measures:Interchange Fees: NPCI announced interchange fees on credit cards for UPI transactions in October 2023, with exemptions for small merchants.
- Customer Choice: RBI mandated that card issuers must offer customers multiple network options and prohibited exclusive arrangements that restrict customer choice.
- Transaction Details:Merchant Transactions: Average ticket size of merchant transactions on UPI ranges from Rs 1,400 to Rs 1,500.
- MDR Charges: Merchant Discount Rate (MDR) applies to UPI-linked RuPay credit card transactions above Rs 2,000, while transactions below Rs 2,000 are exempt.
- Regulatory Impact: In March 2023 directive from RBI directed towards offering multiple network options to customers at the time of card issuance, benefiting the RuPay card network.
About UPI :
- UPI is a system that powers multiple bank accounts into a single mobile application.
- It is developed by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI).
- It was introduced in April 2016.

Reserve Bank of India’s Automated Sweep-In and Sweep-Out System Glitch Disrupts Lending and Borrowing Operations
- The Automated Sweep-In and Sweep-Out System (ASISO), utilized by banks for managing daily liquidity requirements with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), experienced its first malfunction since its inception nearly four years ago.
- This system is crucial as it allows banks to borrow from RBI’s Marginal Standing Facility (MSF) and deposit funds at its Standing Deposit Facility (SDF).

Key Highlights :
- Regulatory Requirements for Banks:Indian banks are mandated to deposit 4.5% of their net deposits with RBI.
- They must maintain at least 90% of this requirement on a daily basis, ensuring liquidity stability in the banking system.
- The Marginal Standing Facility (MSF) offers banks a way to access funds from the central bank during liquidity shortfalls.
What is ASISO?

- Functionality and Importance:ASISO automates the procedure for overseeing banks’ liquidity, playing an essential role in their daily liquidity management.
- It helps maximize the use of human resources by giving qualified participants more flexibility in handling their cash reserve ratio (CRR) balances at the end of the day.
- Technical Glitch:A recent technical glitch in the ASISO facility prevented it from processing transactions in e-Kuber, the core banking solution of RBI.
- The glitch occurred around midnight when the system was automatically triggered.
- Operations and Adjustments:On all real-time gross settlement (RTGS) working days, participants can set or modify their end-of-day current account balance limits between 9 am and 11.30 pm.
- These restrictions can be defined as the maximum and minimum balances (in rupees) associated with MSF (Marginal Standing Facility) operations and the liquidity adjustment facility (LAF).
