I totally agree. as E transactions are recorded they reduce black money. also the transactions are fast. but users must be educated of online fraud to prevent losses.

Hello! I support cashless economy. But the proposal raised by govt. is still lack the right consent. Rather than request SHOPKEEPERS to play / support in this initiative, Govt. should promote INCOME BENEFITS TO CONSUMER which will have more effect to curb black money. for e.g. SIMPLY GIVE TAX REBATE ON SPENDING OF HOUSEHOLD,ETC. or a limit like 50-100k THROUGH CREDIT CARD / DEBIT CARD. This will help govt. to earn indirect taxes, & direct tax as well from shop keepers. Bank will earn too.

There must be some tax benefits who enter transaction through banking channel/debit Card/Credit Card. So, that our citizen motivated to enter cashless transactions. More than Rs. 5000 transaction must be done with out cash, means cash transaction limit must be lower otherwise it will not be beneficial. Other option is banking transaction tax by abolished all other 54 types Taxes & compulsory all transactions through bank.

As much as moving from Cash to Cashless economy is appreciated and at the same time provide adequate infrastructure to meet the requirement. However, in rural areas we need more development in infrastructure.

As much as moving from cash to cashless economy is appreciated, following points need to be addressed. 1. Services like hospitals :cash must be allowed (As people may borrow from multiple to pay immediately). 2. Extra steps needed to be taken to incentive rural economy to move towards plastic money.
