John Kiff on 02 Jan 24The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has achieved its target of recording over one million daily e-rupee transactions. The milestone was accomplished on December 27, 2023. The pilot project for the retail e-rupee was launched on December 1, 2022. Since its initiation, there's been a significant surge in daily transactions, rising from an average of 20,000-25,000 in July to over a million by the close of the year. Commercial banks have been instrumental in this achievement, offering incentives such as cashbacks to promote the use of the e-rupee and attract new users.
