Go Cashless: The smarter way to make payments

It must seem like forever since you tried to fit a bulky wallet in your trouser pocket or handbag. The government’s announcement to do away with currency in 500- and 1000-rupee denominations on November 8 has created a temporary paucity of funds in the market and impacted a majority of the people.
The demonetization announcement was an attempt to fight black money and help transform India take its first steps towards becoming a cashless economy. The jury is out on whether the implementation of this new scheme is in citizens’ best interest, but it can be argued that the eventual focus on virtual transactions is not all bad. Online transactions are easy to track and it becomes difficult for a select group of individuals to hoard large amounts in liquid cash. Moreover, a number of steps are being taken to introduce far-flung areas to this mode of transactions.
ATMs are being recalibrated across the length and breadth of the country as you are reading this. And while people still continue to queue up outside banks and ATMs to access money amid the government’s seemingly ad-hoc policy changes, many have realized that the most convenient way to buy the things they desire is by going cashless. Thanks to a number of e-wallets, banks and non-banking financial companies (NBFC), you can now take care of almost all expenses virtually.
