The Indian government affirms there is no GST on UPI transactions exceeding 2,000. This post clarifies that the confusion arose from NPCI's March 2023 introduction of interchange fees (up to 1.1%) specifically for merchant payments over ₹2,000 made via PPI wallets; this fee is not GST and isn't paid by customers. Standard bank-to-bank UPI remains free due to the MDR waiver. The government actively supports UPI growth through incentive schemes.
