“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.
