The current scenario is surely going to disrupt the way various transactions take place today. As people become more aware about the digital form of transferring money and the benefits which it brings along, the demand for such solutions would be higher. And, of course, the Richie rich of this entire episode would be the digital mobile payment solutions providers, whose sales targets for this year are already being met by the Prime Minister, with the likes of Paytm already seeing about 100 percent growth in their businesses. And moving forward, the growth could be exponentially high, as the move carves   India’s way to a cashless society.

For a country like India, it has been always challenging to introduce any new strategy, technology or move, but thanks to PM Modi that the cashless economy is here today, almost visible and which is gradually seeping into the nooks and corners of the country. In fact, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in one of the press conferences had mentioned that the idea behind demonetization was to get into a cashless economy.

The move is welcomed as not only payment solution providers are going to gain out of it, but the snowball effect could be seen with more technological advancements taking place in the country.

Although India has made a mark for itself in the global map, but such technological advancement are needed for steps towards a cashless economy. After all, “Desh badal raha hai!’
