The Reserve Bank of India has mandated that all scheduled commercial banks, urban and state cooperative banks, payment banks, ATM operations and authorized card payment networks migrate to Aadhaar-based biometric authentication for electronic payment transactions by June 30. Banks have to ensure that all new card-present acceptance infrastructure, including network security, deployed to enable processing payment transactions using Aadhaar-based biometric authentication.
