The problem of retail has been with us for a long time. When we suddenly need to buy something, we face problems due to lack of retail money. Even going to an ATM nearby is of no use because, if we push too hard, the ATM machine will dispense notes of 100 to 500 rupees. Therefore, the common man is suffering endlessly due to retail. Now the central government has come forward to solve that problem. Several reports claim that from now on, the Narendra Modi government is planning to launch special ATMs (Hybrid ATM India) for coins and notes of 10, 20 and even 50 rupees.
Discussions are going on at full speed
In developing countries like India, digital payments are increasing with time. But even then, the real picture is very different. Generally, when it is necessary to go to the market and buy essential goods, cash transactions are preferred. UPI is not accepted in many places. Moreover, there is still a large section of people in the country who have not been able to get acquainted with digital payments till date. Even though they have heard the word, many do not know how to use it. As a result, there is a demand for 10, 20 and 50 rupee notes. Which are a rarity in today’s market.
