Source: NPCI UPI Product Statistics (National Payments Corporation of India), monthly data. Data as of: October 2026, the latest month NPCI has published. Page checked: 9 November 2026.
NPCI reports volume in millions and value in ₹ crore. We convert volume to crore (1 crore = 10 million) and value to ₹ lakh crore (1 lakh crore = 1,00,000 crore). Average ticket size = value ÷ volume. This tool is connected to NPCI’s published data: we check it every week and refresh the figures when a new month is published, usually in the first few days of the next month.
