This ensures transparency and accountability in cash transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Banks and Business Correspondents (BCs) must verify the remitter\u2019s cell phone number and documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Remitters will be registered using a verified mobile phone number and a self-certified &#8216;Officially Valid Document&#8217; (OVD) as per RBI guidelines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; An additional factor of authentication must be required in each transaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Remitting banks and their BCs must comply with provisions of the Income Tax Act regarding cash deposits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Remitter banks are required to include the details of the remitter as part of the transaction message in systems like IMPS (Immediate Payment Service) and NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; There must be an inclusion of a specific identifier in the transaction message where the transactions cash based remittance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What Would It Mean for Users?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These changes would mean that the domestic money transfers will be more secure and compliant with legal regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the users, additional authentication and detailed transaction records, sending as well as receiving money shall be safer as well as more reliable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tashwinder Singh, CEO &amp; MD of Niyogin Fintech said that &#8220;The RBI&#8217;s strengthened KYC procedures for walk-in money transfers are an important step towards improving financial security. These new regulations prioritise client security and fraud prevention by requiring verified mobile numbers, supplementary verification, and self-certified documentation for every transaction.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He added that this new rules and framework shall help build trust, particularly in the rural areas, where still cash is most significant method of payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CEO of Ezeepay, Shams Tabrej said that the RBI\u2019s move &#8220;establishes a strong framework that not only protects individual users but also standardises procedures across banks and payment systems, promoting consistency and trust in transactions.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tabrej also highlighted how these measures will promote digital inclusion, reinforcing user confidence in the security of digital transactions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New guidelines have been introduced by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for the Domestic Money Transfer (DMT), which would impact how users send money within India.
