Knowing about Indian new “e-Rupi”


Analysts say this is an important turning point in the reign of digital payments in India. Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched Indian wallet ‘e-Rupi’. It eliminates middlemen in transfer of payments between beneficiaries and the government. New e-Rupi was developed by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI). 

The NPCI is a company that manages retail payments and settlement systems in India. It is owned by the Reserve Bank of India. It said that e-Rupi was created mainly for digital payments and worked as an e-voucher with QR code or SMS to the respective phone number.


Users can redeem e-Rupee vouchers without any card, digital payment app or internet banking. One can use e-Rupee vouchers without a bank account, Google, Phone Pay, Internet Banking, Smart Phone. However, e-Rupee is not a payment platform like payment methods like Google Pay, Phone Pay, UPI, Paytm, and Internet Banking. This is an e-voucher for certain services only. It is hoped that ‘e-Rupee’ will be much safer and easier as the details of the beneficiaries will be kept completely confidential. It is said that transactions made through e-Rupee are fast and reliable as the required amount of money is deposited in the voucher in advance.


It is an attempt to treat the e-rupee as a rupee in digital form. It is now called ‘Lakshmi’. Bitcoin is the largest cryptocurrency in circulation in the private sector.  There is only one difference between e-Rupi and cryptocurrency like Bitcoin is that e-Rupee is under government control and Bitcoin is not under government control.

What are the uses of e-Rupi?

·         The government is transferring money directly to the bank accounts of the poor and farmers under various schemes. The same thing happened during the coronavirus.

·         Beneficiaries can get the benefit from the government without third party interference and any difficulty.

·         It can avoid one layer and reduce corruption.

One can also track whether a given e-rupee voucher has been consumed, or not. There is a tracking system to know the details of the e-voucher. Analysts believe that the e-Rupee system could offer more benefits in that direction. The government expects the use of digital wallets to increase as the use of cheap smartphones in the country increases.

Producers demand 18 crores for Ceded for Pavan and Trivikram film

Director Rajamouli showed the path to all other producers on how to sell product (movie) in different ways across the word. Telugu Cinema has vertically divided in two ways Before and after Bahubali. Bahubali proves that there were no boundaries in selling the movie. Other producers who are doing with star heros like Pavan, Mahesh and Jr. NTR will follow Rajamouli in this regard. But there is slight difference with Bahubali and other heros films. Unfortunately, producers and distributors fail to notice the gap. Bahubali is universal movie which was apt to all sections in the world. That is the reason for getting huge collections across the world. We didn't expect the same situation for Prabas's next movie even though his popularity increased with Bahubali. Radha Krishna who produced movies like Julayi and A. AA.. will plan to produce next film with Pavan and Trivikram. Movie was not yet started but distributors rushed toward producer for getting area-wise rights.Obviously, ...
