No MDR on UPI Transactions
On Wednesday, the Finance Ministry clarified that speculation and claims that the MDR (merchant discount rate) will be charged on UPI transactions are false. It also said that the government is fully committed to promoting digital payment via UPI.
"Speculation and claims that the MDR will be charged on UPI transactions are completely false, baseless, and misleading...Such baseless and sensation-creating speculations cause needless uncertainty, fear and suspicion among our citizens," the ministry said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
No MDR On Transactions Above Rs 2,000
Currently, there is no MDR on person-to-merchant (P2M) UPI transactions. The decision was taken by the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) and has been effective since January 2020.
