Its strange but learned folks still not supporting Cashless transaction. Few recent visit to Doctors, situation still not changed. Even while a small pettey shop vendor like vegetable seller/Puncture shop folks go for PAYTM/wallet based payment, DRs are still following old age practice-CASH only. With Consulting fees range between Rs.400 to Rs.500 are changed in CASH only. Only changes are accepted. Can this looked at and some one give direction to Medical community to go for cashless.

1) BHIM App for other platforms also. 2) Request TRAI to make small data internet pack with long validity. (I use BSNL TSP but the lowest data charge for 28 days is 109 and 198. It would make no sense for public to pay Rs 200 extra for the same services that they used to get earlier.) 3) No transfer charges on NEFT/RTGS/IMPS for small amount. ( Example - I wanted to pay my maid services with IMPS but addition of Rs5 and service tax into the bill discourages me)

I am basically a software engineer hence naturally when India goes digital i will be very happy. here are my few suggestions for better digital payments 1)BHIM app is good, but since BHIM app is supposed to be used by illetrate people also. Please remove (or take steps) fake BHIM app from the google play store. 2)Please remove all tax/charges/fees related to digital payments, instead make cash payments costlier 3)like BHIM app , govt can create a common Billing app for billing.

Some additional ideas for union budget- promotion of Agro based industries, promoting ponds, rain water collecting tanks in rural and urban, government interference in price level of agriculture products, special support to Indian made products, Bharatya education system promotion, skill education and digital education,sports university.

We have seen free electricity, water, laptop, cycles etc in past but free internet can change India with much faster speed that anything else and help achieve total cashless economy in less than 10 years. It will have a major positive impact on improving literacy rate as everyone wants to be on facebook and whatsapp. I have seen people who never went school but trying to read messages on phone and learning reading and typing just to be on Facebook and whatsapp. also help population control.

Hi, Most of the post offices are not accepting the digital payments yet. what is the use of promoting digital payments when the central government organisation is not accepting the digital payments for account deposits, ppf, etc.

1.BHIM App should be made more powerful and should work offline, remote places and without data. 2. Digital Payments by kids and old people should be allowed by Smartwatches or smart aadhar card by tapping card ex: OCTOPUS Card in Hongkong

There is a need to make a software/application (free of cost) that collects payment of a movie ticket online, and at the counters of theaters and multiplexes this will make up date all information of release and current position of movie display and collection. Since ticket is given by print-out at most the places: 1. We can save lot of papers, 2. Better purchase of ticket and distribution of people, 3. Greater Tax collection
