Dilip Asbe, managing director of National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), is optimistic about the central bank’s new CBDC initiatives.

He expressed his support for a digital rupee initiative during a panel at the Mumbai Tech Week on Sunday. He said the Reserve Bank of India’s new central bank digital currency (CBDC) plans could drive the next fintech wave.

“Programmability will facilitate transactions for specific/targeted purposes, while offline functionality will enable these transactions in areas with poor or limited internet connectivity,” the bank wrote.

RBI governor Shaktikanta Das said that companies would also benefit with the ability to program designated expenses.

The central bank’s e-rupee, plans to put in place a framework or authentication of digital payment transactions. RBI has already tested additional factor authentication including receiving OTPs on SMS.

In September, the RBI collaborated with some of the prominent financial institutions to introduce innovative features on the digital rupee. The move aimed to popularize CBDC to boost retail CBDC transactions in India. Some of the features include offline CBDC transactions and linking CBDCs to India’s widely used Unified Payments Interface (UPI).

As reported earlier, India’s largest public sector bank, the State Bank of India, has already integrated digital rupee with UPI.
