“The RBI-DPI index has demonstrated significant growth, representing the rapid adoption and deepening of digital payments across the country in recent years,” the RBI said in a statement on Wednesday.

In order to measure the degree of payment digitisation across the nation, the Reserve Bank of India had announced the creation of a composite Reserve Bank of India – Digital Payments Index (RBI-DPI) in March 2018.

The RBI-DPI consists of 5 main characteristics that make it possible to measure the depth and penetration of digital payments over time in the nation.

Payment Enablers (weighted at 25%), Payment Infrastructure – Demand-Side Factors (10%), Payment Infrastructure – Supply-Side Factors (15%), Payment Performance (weighted at 45%), and Consumer Centricity are these metrics (5 per cent).

Starting in March 2021, the index will be released every six months with a four-month lag.
