India's National Payments Corporation is developing a registry to verify AI agents making transactions on the Unified Payments Interface, enabling agentic payments that let AI handle some user transactions autonomously.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech, and 15 sources have reported it between 1 Sep 2026 and 10 Sep 2026.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You operate in India's payment space means a new AI registry will soon control which agents can transact on UPI. Prepare your compliance and product strategy to align with evolving government oversight.
