Starting from April 1st, significant changes are being introduced to the Unified Payment Interface (UPI) system. According to new guidelines by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), multiple mobile numbers will be deactivated. This step is mainly aimed at removing inactive or stolen numbers from the database. The move is expected to reduce the risk of incorrect payments and make the money transfer process safer and faster.

From April, the database will be updated weekly, and unused or irregular numbers will be removed. Customers have until March 31st to comply with these new rules. These changes aim to simplify the payment system, making it more user-friendly. Additionally, the update is expected to attract more users, thereby increasing overall customer base.
