India is significantly diverse in culture and how it promotes business transactions. Though we are very acquainted with cash, cards, and online mode of payment, the Indian rural economy still believes in the barter system. At this juncture, India is evolving as a tech power house, and its economy is thriving to embrace cryptocurrency as a medium of exchange. After the Indian finance minister declared the same last February that India is working towards building its legal tender called Central Bank-backed Digital Currency (CBDC), this paper is making an impact in explaining our strengths, weakness, market readiness, and necessity to adopt a digital rupee when India's economy is highly regarded as a cashoriented economy. Is our country ready to accept the new technological shift in smart banking in the form of a digital rupee? The paper highlights the socioeconomic and technical challenges our planners need to understand before changing the Central banks' monetary policies. The deployment of fifth-generation (5G) cellular network technology has sparked renewed interest in the potential of blockchain to automate different cellular network use cases. 5G is projected to open up new market prospects for small and large businesses. The article highlights the unique instrument of the digital rupee to enhance peer-to-peer transactions with the evolution of 5G mobile technology.
The Role of RBI on Implementation of Digital Currencies in Indiaijtsrd
In the present technological world, technology provided many advances and the widespread use of the Internet, various digital currencies have emerged. In most cases, Internet platforms such as Face book and Amazon restrict the functionality of their digital currencies to enhance the business model and maximize their profits. While platform based digital currencies would increase the efficiency of retail payments, they could also raise some important policy issues if they were to become widely used outside of the platform. Thus, it is important to closely monitor the evolution of these digital currencies.

The adoption of bitcoins technology: The difference between perceived future ...IJECEIAES
Bitcoin is a decentralized system that tries to become a solution to the shortcomings of fiat and gold-based currencies. Considering its newness, the adoption level of bitcoin is yet understood. Hence, several variables are proposed in this work in examining user perceptions regarding performance expectancy, effort expectancy, trust, adoption risk, decentralization and social influence interplay, with the context of user’s future expectation and behavioral intentions to use bitcoins. Data were gathered from 293 completed questionnaire and analised using AMOS 18. The outcomes prove the sound predictability of the proposed model regarding user’s future expectations and intentions toward bitcoins. All hypotheses were supported, they were significantly affecting the dependent variables. Social influence was found as the highest predictor of behavioral intention to negatively utilize bitcoins. The significant impact of social influence, adoption risk and effort expectancy which affect behavioral intention to use bitcoins the most, are demonstrated in this study. Bitcoins should thus, present an effective, feasible and personalized program which will assist efficient usage among users. Additionally, the impacts of social influence, adoption risk and perceived trust on behavioral intention to utilize new technology were compared, and their direct path was tested together, for the first time in this context.
FinTech is just short for financial technology and it refers to the application of technology in the financial industry.

How financial technologies (FinTech) can help in providing financial services and financial products to unbanked and underbanked ?
Payment industry is largely aligned in their desire to create embedded payment systems ready for the
modern digital age. The trend to embed payments into a software platform is often regarded as first step
towards a broader trend of embedded finance based on digital representation of fiat currencies. Since it
became clear to our research team that there are no technologies and protocols that are protected against
attacks of quantum computing, and that enable automatic embedded payments, online or offline with no
fear of counterfeit, P2P or device-to-device to be made in real time without intermediaries, in any
denomination, even continuous payments per time or service, while preserving the privacy of all parties,
without enabling illicit activities, we decided to utilize the Generic Innovation Engine [1] that is based on
the Artificial Intelligence Assistance Innovation acceleration methodologies and tools in order to boost the
progress of innovation of the necessary solutions. These methodologies accelerate innovation across the
board. It proposes a framework for natural and artificial intelligence collaboration in pursuit of an
innovative (R&D) objective The outcome of deploying these Artificial Innovation Assistant (AIA)
methodologies was tens of patents that yield solutions, that a few of them are described in this paper. We
argue that a promising avenue for automated embedded payment systems to fulfil people’s desire for
privacy when conducting payments, and national security agencies demand for quantum-safe security,
could be based on DeFi and digital currencies platforms that does not suffer from flaws of DLT-based
solutions, while introducing real advantages, in all aspects, including being quantum-resilient, enabling
users to decide with whom, if at all, to share information, identity, transactions details, etc., all without
trade-offs, complying with AML measures, and accommodating the potential for high transaction volumes.
It is not legacy bank accounts, and it is not peer-dependent, nor a self-organizing network.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

ABSTRACT
India is significantly diverse in culture and how it promotes business transactions. Though we are very
acquainted with cash, cards, and online mode of payment, the Indian rural economy still believes in the
barter system. At this juncture, India is evolving as a tech power house, and its economy is thriving to
embrace cryptocurrency as a medium of exchange. After the Indian finance minister declared the same last
February that India is working towards building its legal tender called Central Bank-backed Digital
Currency (CBDC), this paper is making an impact in explaining our strengths, weakness, market
readiness, and necessity to adopt a digital rupee when India's economy is highly regarded as a cash-

1. INTRODUCTION
With rapid technological advancement, the banking industry develops fast with digital products
to meet customer demands. The century-old traditional banking is dying, and the new peer-to-
peer transfer digital currency era is at its peak. Like any other tech-savvy nation, India is also
racing ahead to make a digital currency of its own and provide the young generation with the best
effective banking solutions at their fingertips. Digital currency is the best innovation in the last
decade to make world banking secure, transparent, and faster [1, 2, 23]. Indian economy is said to
be fast-growing and considered a bright spot among other global emerging markets. In the global
environment, India has multiple strengths of a larger youth population, growing middle-class
people, increased literacy level, and improved technical knowledge among the workforce,
favorably addressing any proactive change in the present setup. Historically, India has been a
cash transaction-oriented economy in almost all business activities. But in a country like India,
where 90% of the transactions are in cash, people adopted card or digital modes of payments in a
short period after demonetization [1].The above point illustrates that the Indian financial system
is inherently robust and well-adjusted, and our banking system is also well structured to meet any

future financial endeavour [3]. The Indian economy in the future is going to follow a mixed
financial model of centralized, decentralized, and token-based FinTech models.
Cryptocurrency is one of the remarkable financial forms that emerged in the past few years. It can
be defined as any medium of exchange, apart from real-world money, which can be used in many
financial transitions, whether virtual or real. Cryptocurrencies represent valuable and intangible
objects that can be used electronically or virtually in different applications and networks, such as
social networks, online social games, virtual worlds, and peer networks [1]. Since Satoshi
Nakamoto introduced cryptocurrency, it has developed tremendously due to improved technology
and advanced usage methods. This technology is well utilized in India, with various companies
incorporating technology in their daily transactions, with start-ups taking the spotlight in
technological utility. Three primary industries that have taken digital currency into their day-to-
day operations are insurance, banking, and financial services.
Additionally, the Indian public sector started utilizing this technology in various activities such as
registering land titles, farm insurance, and health records management. Vietnam and China are
the only countries those rank ahead of India in adopting and researching digital currency. The
declaration of the Indian government in their last budget session to build a digital rupee by the
end of 2023, which will be used as a legal tender, is a significant move forward to establish India
as a digital economy [4].
2. SMART BANKING AND THE NEED FOR DIGITAL CURRENCY
The finance industry has been the most regulated industry type for decades. But innovations in
the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Natural language Processing (NLP), Blockchain, 5G
network, and the Internet of Things (IoT) have pushed the finance sector to adopt these
technologies to meet growing customer needs. The growing pace of smart banking adoption
helped finance industries focus on speed, efficacy, security, and cost reduction. With the
evolution of social media and internet banking, the unstructured data volume has increased in
Fintech. But that gives banks the control to get data insights and use those for customer self-
service analytics. In smart banking, self-service solutions are the new quality measuring tools in
the era of big data analytics for quicker and better decision-making [5]. As the internet and
smartphone users are constantly increasing globally, banks are getting enormous pressure to
operate in a 24*7 virtual mode to offer their services to their clients. The graph below shows how
internet users have constantly increased in the last decade [6].

Blockchain has made an enormous contribution to reshaping modern-day financial and banking
institutions. As a centralized and distributed technology, it is a powerful tool in many banking
functions. The critical needs of banking, such as trust, transparency, agility, speed, and security,
can be addressed using Blockchain technology [6, 7]. So, it's not a luxury but a need for the
banking system to accept this technology at this hour. The smart contract for blockchain-based
financial and banking systems is critical in setting pre-defined agreements among bank
customers. But the innovation in the private cryptocurrency market is putting a lot of pressure on
countries and financial institutions to think about a government-approved legal tender in the form
of digital currency. Many countries, including India, are seriously considering developing a
digital legal tender by the end of 2013 [7]. Digital legal tender scope with its limitations is the
main topic of discussion for future banking sustainability, which we address below in detail
concerning India.
3. BLOCKCHAIN AND CRYPTOCURRENCY
In simplistic terms, blockchain technology handles blocks uniquely identified, linked transactions
like a chain structure. Each block is chained to the previous one by its referenced hash-value,
called a digital fingerprint of each block, created by a hashing function [8]. Blockchain systems
are transparent distributed ledger technology connected to the nodes responsible for validating a
smart contract's governing logic. This technology gives users high confidence because each
transaction is unchangeable and allows all parties to have identical records [8].
Cryptocurrency is one of the most significant technological achievements of the modern era,
which promotes a peer-to-peer (P2P) transaction system that relies on "Cryptographic proof
rather than trust" [4, 9]. Cryptocurrencies are digital assets representing value made possible by
cryptography and Blockchain [1]. A unique and unalterable timestamp records each transaction in
cryptocurrency, and each party has a copy to avoid authority problems at any given period. Each
transaction code is broadcasted to all nodes on the network, and it needs approval from all
legitimate parties to get processed. Larry Ren from Reddcoin notes, "The underlying principle of
such a strict mechanism is essential for expanding resources when confirming transactions" [2].
In modern blockchain processes, users do not host copies of ledger data among themselves.
Instead, they use a cloud service provider (CSP) to maintain active and backup copies of the
Blockchain and compute the transactions and blocks as they happen. P2P networking is necessary
in these cases to run the Blockchain, and the CSP becomes a third party to track the transaction
history [1].
Crypto and Blockchain have been around for a long time, but in the last couple of years,
executives around the globe have been thinking of accepting and adding those into the
mainstream of the business. Now, cryptocurrencies are considered alternatives for payments and
new assets for time and cost savings for an enterprise's digital future. But still, executives are in
doubt, and some view differently to accept it into the global finance streams. The detailed
challenges are highlighted below from a PWC study conducted in 2018-19 and published in
Business Insider magazine [3]. The regulatory, compliance, trust, and intellectual property
concerns are the biggest worries of the modern-day executives of blockchain adaptation.

4. COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND THE CRYPTOMARKET
The current COVID-19 pandemic has significantly accelerated crypto usage in all areas. The
digitization wave is a catalyst for how people do financial transactions nowadays. The number of
private cryptocurrencies and people investing in those assets increased multifield in recent years.
The parallel economy created by private crypto investors forced many governments to step
towards digitization and develop their digital currency. As a result of the COVID-19 lockdown,
most consumers opted for digital transactions, further accelerating digital currency growth [1].
This change places a blockchain among the contributors to sustainable development since it is
connected to almost all development objectives. The high digital transactions during this
pandemic have forced many governments worldwide to think more about the future and
adaptability of crypto as approved legal tender. Blockchain can also be utilized by individuals
and the government across various sectors. In a populous country like India, Blockchain presents
another benefit by providing transparency, development, security, and transaction efficiencies
among vulnerable communities.
Fear sentiment, uncertainty, and organizational asset price dynamics were impacted heavily
during this stock market pandemic. Similarly, unregulated and ill-informed crypto assets
fluctuated heavily during this pandemic [10]. A study by Susana et al. [11] revealed that
compared to the pre-pandemic period, the upswing and downswing of the crypto market are more
frequent during this COVID-19 pandemic era. It created many public nuances and built a parallel
financial layer globally, threatening the global economy. This market condition forces many
countries to make crypto transactions taxable or ban the total black-crypto market by introducing
digital currencies to beat crypto. Countries like China, Venezuela, and eastern Caribbean nations
are the front runners in declaring and building cryptocurrencies equivalent to their national
currency [12]. In a recent development, India, following in the same footsteps as other countries
and seeing the global crypto trend, has recently announced building her digital rupee by 2022-23
[2].

5. DIGITAL RUPEE AND THE INDIAN ECONOMY
As the 6th
largest economy, blockchain adaptation presents India with global strategic positioning
to obtain solutions to its business environment, security, jobs, and capital problems. As a result,
the government is keen to facilitate the background to ensure that innovation in this area occurs
without disruption. However, administering Blockchain is expensive, with a demand for high-end
resources to facilitate the complete processing of data. The various nodes in the Blockchain
perform the same tasks as their data copies. Many banks in India, such as the State Bank of India,
Kotak Mahindra Bank, ICICI Bank, Axis Bank, and Yes Bank, approve Blockchain. All these
banks project a high growth potential with immense growth progress into the future [2, 13].
These banks started using blockchain in their international financing transactions [4]. There is an
exciting step forward by the Institute for Development and Research in Banking Technology
(IDRBT), the technology and research arm of RBI, as it is working on a technology model using
a blockchain platform to facilitate Indian banks' banking needs. This move comes when
blockchain technology prototypes are fast-moving from experimentation to deployment in many
financial institutions [4]. As the digital market is gaining more popularity across the world
economy, there are many benefits that the Indian government will avail of by adopting the digital
rupee using blockchain technology, which is explained in detail below.
5.1. Transparency
Cryptocurrency enhances transparency, where every transaction can be traced back to the central
node. Also, Blockchain, the technology on which the digital rupee is based, is immutable. This
means that transaction histories are permanent and unalterable and can help significantly bring
down fraud and corruption as the data cannot be altered by any means [7]. Digital rupee
payments will reduce the settlement risk in the financial system. Interbank settlement will not be
required as the system will transact the digital currencies instead of bank balances, just like the
cash is handed over. Similarly, forex transactions would be able to pay its American exporter in
real-time in digital dollars [12]. Digital currencies in India will promote real-time and cost-
effective globalization of payment systems.
5.2. Employment Growth
The crypto industry currently employs about 50,000 individuals, and as per a report, the industry
is poised to see massive employment opportunities globally, pegged at over 800,000 by 2030
[12]. India already has a strong talent pool of finance professionals and IT experts. Additionally,
the talent is available at cost-effective rates. With the rise of the cryptocurrency market, India is
becoming a central hub and global destination for the cryptocurrency market [7, 14].
5.3. Boost the FinTech Sector and Taxation
As mentioned earlier, India already has a strong base of IT professionals. The collaboration of IT
and the financial sector can bring endless business openings and overseas cash influx
opportunities. Additionally, with the Indian government getting strong regulatory measures to
implement new Goods and Services Tax (GST) and create laws for an official digital currency, it
will attract substantial foreign investments [7]. Digital rupee and crypto acceptance will boost the
FinTech sector and move the Indian economy forward. A shift from cash to digital transactions
will lead to better tax compliance. The government will record a noticeable rise in tax to GDP
ratio in the future [15].

5.4. Enhanced Digital Payments
Cryptocurrency transactions are both time and cost-effective. The transactions are carried out
between the sender and receiver without needing a third party, making the transactions easy and
instant [5, 16]. Furthermore, the transaction charge levied by intermediaries like banks and
payment gateways is exterminated. It helps reduce the transaction cost, helping save money on
each transaction. Thus, implementing a digital rupee will not only support India's financial
inclusion goal, but crypto transactions can significantly enhance digital payments, bringing down
the time and cost of each indenture [16].
5.5. Achieve the Goal of Atmanirbhar Bharat
India has consistently positioned itself among the largest recipient of remittances. The digital
rupee will solve those problems because remittances involve a high fee and a long waiting time
for processing [10]. With the government proposing the creation of a single, officially recognized
cryptocurrency, the dependence on third-party, private, and foreign-based cryptocurrency will be
eliminated. Popular cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, and others are foreign-
based. The official cryptocurrency will be developed entirely in the country and must depend on
other cryptocurrencies for inter-transnationality based on the core blockchain architecture.
Investors, trades, and other individuals will have a single digital rupee for their needs and help
the government fulfill its goal of 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' in cryptocurrency [2, 17].
5.6. End of the Fake Currency Problem
As per the Indian Statistical Institute (ISI), the movement of fake currency in the Indian economy
is Rs.400 Crore at every point in time. It was also stated that the Rs.70 Crore counterfeit currency
is also being inserted annually into the Indian economy, making it an economic security risk [18].
The digital rupee will also put an end to it as technologies will discard fake notes. It will
eliminate the prospects of fraud and hidden customer charges as businesses will be in charge and
monitor advertisements from the start while observing their expenditure [19]. Blockchain allows
customers to select their share data, just like companies do.
5.7. Saving on Printing and Supplying Cash Notes
As per the data provided by the Indian currency notes press, the standard cost of printing ₹10,
₹50, and ₹500 notes are ₹0.86, ₹1.24, and ₹2.71, respectively, in the year 2018-19 [3]. Also, the
above study highlights that the cost of the supply chain of cash notes to different parts of the
country is a few crores of rupees annually. So, if the digital rupee is introduced, this extra cost of
printing and delivery can be saved, which is considerable in the long run.
6. DIGITAL RUPEE AND ITS CHALLENGES IN INDIA
6.1. Technological challenges
Digital Rupee's technical ecosystem is vulnerable to cyber-attacks in the same way that present
payment systems. Furthermore, the rise in digital payment-related scams may expand to digital
rupees in areas with lower financial literacy levels in the country. As a result, institutions dealing
with the digital rupee must ensure strong cybersecurity standards while focusing on financial
literacy. The economy's ability to absorb the digital rupee partly depends on technological
readiness and digital literacy. The development of a census-taking digital currency system relies
on the advancement of high-speed internet and telecommunication networks and adequate
7. International Journal of Network Security & Its Applications (IJNSA) Vol.14, No.5, September 2022
45
technical support for storing and transacting in digital rupee with the public. The proposed 5G
countrywide implementation will catalyze the digital rupee strategy execution and speed delivery
[20]. Lower levels of technology adoption and cryptocurrency unfamiliarity in underdeveloped
areas in India may restrict the reach of the digital rupee and exacerbate existing inequities in
access to financial goods and services [21].
6.2. Socioeconomic Challenges
Some economists believe the Indian digital rupee needs intensive thought and less
implementation. The Indian government's claim that this digital rupee will boost its digital
economy by adopting this Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) by replacing paper notes needs
more socioeconomic analysis considering the diversity of Indian culture. The digital rupee
without ATMs will be operated from smartphones without any limits. It will give more
purchasing power to the consumers, which will be a direct liability to the Reserve Bank of India
(RBI), like cash transactions [15]. As per the analysis of Mukherjee [12] from Bloomberg, the
digital rupee will restrict cash flow to banks, impacting weaker banks to maintain sticky, low-cost
deposit accounts. The above study also highlights that the less-liquid balance sheets will make the
banks vulnerable and create financial instability.
Compared to other countries globally, India accounts for 15% of the money supply, which shows
cash is not dying in India. While Sweden and the United States are researching meticulously in
adopting digital currency, they are still seeking public opinion on whether to issue the digital
rupee or not [15, 22]. As transactions will be in digital mode using smartphones, CBDC will be
designed so that the central bank can trace all transactions and check money laundering cases.
Also, the mindset of the Indian public needs to be changed to adopt the technology-driven
currency. Though the crypto market is booming on social media and online, it is still unknown to
the general public [23]. According to 2021 figures, just 4.5% of individuals have used Bitcoin or
digital currency according to a poll [24]. As rural industries and farming drive the Indian
economy, technology needs to be reachable everywhere to facilitate this digital journey.
Considering India's vast digital divide (Figure 3), the RBI needs to balance the technology,
Blockchain, and otherwise to balance the main goals of speed, scalability, auditing, and security
to manage this drive [12, 24]. Proper digital and security training plans must be implemented in
all rural areas, districts, and cities to ensure better usability and benefits of these digital rupees.

7. DIGITAL RUPEE AND THE INDIAN MONETARY POLICY
Interest in a central bank digital currency has risen in the last few years. But it is crucial to
analyze digital policy implementation, transmission, and stability for a future Indian financial
structure. CBDCs can potentially affect the behavior of the public and the Indian economy at
large. Suppose the demand for CBDCs exceeds supply, and CBDCs are primarily issued via the
banking system, as is expected. In that case, additional liquidity may be required to compensate
for currency leakage from the finance system.
For this reason, much recent debate has focused on using negative interest-bearing CBDCs for
monetary policy efficacy because negative interest rates are ineffective due to the transition to
cash [25]. Many advanced western countries have been limited in their capacity to cut interest
rates due to the meager inflationary economy [26]. If money can carry a negative interest rate, the
monetary transmission to increase digital rupee demand would be more successful. As a result,
the case for paying a negative interest rate on CBDC as an unorthodox monetary policy
instrument to encourage consumption needs to be authenticated [1, 26]. Interest-bearing CBDCs
can impact the attractiveness of fixed deposits held by traditional banking systems, negatively
impacting Indian banks' overall lending capacity. But for sure, the Indian FinTech sector will
have three future exchange modes: cash, e-card-based online payments, and CBDC-backed
digital rupee. The Venn diagram (Figure 4) represents the same.
Figure 4. Three modes of prominent exchanges in India
Note: Adapted from Central bank cryptocurrencies., by M., Bech, and R., Garratt, 2017.
The Reserve Bank authorities are taking a cautious stand on designing and planning CBDCs and
are still studying its risks. Considering the Indian mode of operation and young and middle-class
families, the above three modes of transactions need to be balanced well with logical meaning to
handle cyber threats and the possibility of counterfeiting [26]. A nuanced and calibrated approach
is required to launch India's first digital currency.
8. RECOMMENDATION FOR FUTURE WORK
The banking industry's primary worry is fraudulent activities and cyber threats [27]. To maintain
the financial industry strong and sustainable, the government should focus more on data and
client privacy [28]. This technology can be upgraded with new generation AI and federated
9. International Journal of Network Security & Its Applications (IJNSA) Vol.14, No.5, September 2022
47
learning. Consequently, these CBDC investigations will give academics, authorities, and
economists fresh insights on how to speed up the study and research of digital money in India.
Because India and its business model prioritize cash and financial institutions, the FinTech
industry needs a detailed plan before implementing it in many parts to achieve its goal of being a
$5 trillion economy by 2030. Before implementing the plan across the country, the
implementation model must be thoroughly explored.
9. CONCLUSION
Undoubtedly, India is marching toward a more digital economy every day. As the Indian
government ventures into the blockchain-backed digital rupee, citizens' trust will increase. This
belief is due to peer-to-peer transactions, which eliminate fraud and increase transparency from
public auditing. But the technology is still new, and various developments are going on
worldwide to find better alternatives for implementing cryptocurrency in countries. There will be
gains from the step in India, but that may not happen immediately, and government needs a
proper blueprint of digital governance and risk analysis before moving ahead. As India and its
business model are more favorable toward cash and banking systems, the FinTech industry needs
a perfect plan before implementing it in different parts. The implementation model needs to
follow a proof of concept (POC) pilot model in some business segments in a few metros to test its
usability and popularity before rolling out the plan countrywide. As India has been struggling for
decades to control money laundering, corruption, demonetization, and terrorist funding, the
CBDC provides a better opportunity to trace the movement of funds. CBDC will be more
attractive and promising than cash to attract young generations to replace notes and coins in the
long run. India surely needs more preparation as it will present its financial model as 3Cs, a
mixed model economy- Cash, Card, and Crypto.
