Everyone in the UPI ecosystem has only benefitted from it. Here's how:
🔸Government: Printed fewer notes and saved cost. NPCI makes a surplus and pays tax.
🔸UPI service providers: They collect data and then sell you loans, travel offers, etc. Gpay/Cred/Paytm
🔸Banks/NBFCs: They make interest on loans that the UPI service providers help them sell.
🔸The income tax and GST department also get more of a trail of where the money is flowing. Formalises the economy and increases tax revenue.
No one is bearing the cost. You are charging us more.
By removing the minimal subsidy, the government is charging us for its inefficiencies.
Babus and netas need to stop doing corruption rather than levying new charges on customers/merchants/investors each day.
UPI MDR is only going to burden the low margin businesses.
The director of a Pharma company shared the impact on his business.
It’ll cost them ₹1.2 Crores a year in UPI TAX.
Assuming a 2-3% margin business, it’s a 11-17% hit on gross profits.
May as well lead to losses for many businesses if they don’t switch.

85% of Google Pixel owners use their phone for the same 5 things every Android phone does.
Calls. Texts. Camera. Chrome. Gmail.
That's a phone with 15+ exclusive features features Samsung doesn't have, features iPhone doesn't have, features no other Android phone on earth can run being used like a $200 budget phone.
Your Pixel answers spam calls for you before you pick up. It identifies every song playing around you on your lock screen, without Shazam, without internet. It erases people from photos. It swaps faces in group shots. It holds your place in customer service queues so you don't have to.
Google buried these features behind menus, toggles, and settings nobody opens after setup day.
A Pixel product reviewer who's tested 30+ smartphones in 2026 told me: "Pixel isn't the fastest phone. It isn't the most powerful. But it has more genuinely useful exclusive software features than any phone I've tested iPhone included. The problem is Google markets the hardware and forgets to tell anyone about the software."
Here are 11 Pixel-exclusive features most owners have never turned on 🧵
🚨 FASTag has a MASSIVE security loophole & nobody is talking about it.
Today, literally anyone with access to your car & RC can get a NEW FASTag issued on your vehicle in THEIR name & mobile number.
No OTP.
No owner authorization.
No consent from the actual vehicle owner.
The moment that happens?
Your existing FASTag gets blacklisted/deactivated instantly under the “One Vehicle One FASTag” policy.
That’s exactly what happened to me.
I’m currently transporting my car from Mumbai to Delhi & handed over the vehicle to the transporter’s driver on Saturday.
He casually asked me if there was balance in the FASTag.
Next morning, I received a message from ICICI saying a new FASTag had been activated on my vehicle & my existing FASTag would be deactivated.
Within minutes, it was blacklisted/deactivated.
Honestly, God knows what the plan even was.
Maybe he thought the balance would transfer.
Maybe he wanted to misuse it during transit.
Maybe something worse.
The scary part?
The system ALLOWED this without a single authorization from the actual vehicle owner.
The NETC FASTag portal was down the entire day.
After 4+ hours of calls, ICICI finally told me the new FASTag was issued via Airtel Payments Bank.
Later, I checked the Airtel Thanks app & guess what?
The FASTag had been registered by the SAME driver who took the car.
This is where things become ridiculous.
Airtel Payments Bank support told me THEY cannot close the FASTag unless the person who activated it calls them personally.
Read that again.
The actual vehicle owner has ZERO control over the FASTag -
but the person who fraudulently activated it does.
The NHAI helpline at 1033 was equally useless.
No emergency block.
No fraud handling.
No owner protection mechanism.
So if someone activates a FASTag on your car, you’re basically stranded.
How is this acceptable infrastructure for something linked to a vehicle owner’s identity & movement?
This is no longer just a scam.
It’s a massive security vulnerability in the FASTag ecosystem.
NPCI/NETC urgently needs mandatory owner authorization.
At the very least, mandate OTP verification from the registered vehicle owner before ANY FASTag change is approved.
This needs immediate attention, @NPCI_NPCI@FASTag_NETC.
Pathetic support, zero accountability, and absolutely no protection for the actual vehicle owner while someone else fraudulently took control of the FASTag.
That should never be possible, @ICICIBank@airtelbank.
Today at the SPOM center of ICAI, ₹20 was being charged for keeping bags and personal belongings. Even though the amount is minimal, these are basic facilities that should be provided, especially when examination fees are already being collected.
Yaha bhi business!!
@theicai
@CAamanmittal No doubt ICAI has a robust system in conducting exam without leaks but after giving May 26 CA Finals one major thing ICAI lacks is standardisation in every paper sometimes AFM like subjects are asked quite easy and in next attempt your are not able to attempt even for 10 marks
