UPI Transactions Rise 27 Percent Annually In February

Daily transaction value also climbed sharply, nearing the significant Rs one lakh crore mark. Data released by the



National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) on Sunday showed that UPI recorded 20.39 billion transactions in February 2026, down from 21.70 billion transactions in January. 

Despite the month-on-month decline, transaction volumes increased 27 per cent year-on-year. The sequential decline was mainly due to February having fewer days than January.
