UPI records marginal dip in June with 18.4 Bn transactions This reflects a month-on-month (MoM) dip of around 1.5% in volume and 4.4% in value. On a year-on-year (YoY) basis, UPI volumes in June grew 32%, while the transaction value rose 20%. After hitting an all-time high in May, Unified Payments Interface (UPI) transactions slightly declined in June 2025 in both volume and value. According to data released by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), the platform processed 18.40 billion transactions worth Rs 24.04 lakh crore in June, compared to 18.68 billion transactions worth Rs 25.14 lakh crore in May. This reflects a month-on-month (MoM) dip of around 1.5% in volume and 4.4% in value. On a year-on-year (YoY) basis, UPI volumes in June grew 32%, while the transaction value rose 20%. The average daily transaction count stood at 613 million in June, slightly higher than 602 million in May, while the average daily transaction value was marginally lower at Rs 80,131 crore compared to Rs 81,106 crore in the previous month.

Paytm is the third-largest UPI player with a 6.84% share of the UPI volume.
