@terminator1229 People doing small transaction will be using UPI and big transactions will use Free NEFT, RTGS and IMPS. What's the problem? Convenience is something that goes away as one needs to add beneficiary first for the bank transfers but it's ok for big transactions.
@ajayrotti I believe paying for credit card transaction should be the only transactions which should be charged a Fee. All else should be free if digital payments to be encouraged and also cost of this can easily be compensated by cost of printing and distributing money and other expenses
@kothariabhishek That's a big decline in analytical acumen in quest to target everything the government does.
Is MDR a tax?
So Visa and MasterCard burdening tax payers?
Please compare the MDR rates of Visa or MasterCard.
One thing that can be argued is how will this MDR affect digi transactions.

@navinkhaitan@PankajPachauri India is 3rd in GDP PPP per capita. I wish we had higher growth as our potential is way higher if we stop stupid cash transfers for unproductive purposes, but I think given Covid and second oil shock in this period it's fair. Not the best but fair.
@kothariabhishek By all standards it should given the nominal growth rates. Things stay expensive if nominal growth rates are high. Structurally we aren't a high nominal growth rate country once we used to be.
@kothariabhishek Absolutely needed..
1) Cost of bulk deposits is around 7% to 7.15% so direct cost saving of 50 to 65 basis points.
2) Credit to deposit ratio is at multi year highs and this money helps cushion CD ratio.
3) No SLR or CRR so actual cost even lower than the domestic deposits.
@MAYANK8382@BindassPrasad@kothariabhishek Loan is taken at 6.25%-6.5%. Against that loan is given at 5.75% which is a spread of around 0.5%. The difference funded by wholesale market which is around 5.2% so technically its a no cost for banks. Just like businesses keeping FD at bank @6.5% and take loan at 7% against it.
@kothariabhishek Agreed, in quest to deploy fast and show better NIMs banks should not lend recklessly.
I think banks can use the following ways to manage liquidity.
1) Repay higher cost bulk deposits or not renew at higher cost.
2) Lend excess money to high quality NBFCs that borrow at 7.5-8%.
@kothariabhishek Are stock prices (Index) always rational in short term?
They track EPS growth rates. Now tell what has been EPS growth rates not profit growth rates of highest weighing stocks in index.
@kothariabhishek@IDFCFIRSTBank@KotakBankLtd Isent that the entire point of comparing efficiency. Lower branches higher business. Another point of efficiency that would be interesting is business per employee of these banks.
