If a user is paying 5rs per IMPS transaction, why shouldn't UPI have a way to charge users?

but yaar charging users, even a small amount , might actually backfire. i personally feel UPI worked because it was free and super convenient. The moment you add a cost, people might just go back to cash or look for hacks to avoid paying.tโ€™s not like every user is doing highvalue or highvolume transactions. For most people like me itโ€™s just buying veggies, splitting bills, or sending money home.If anything, banks and big platforms are already benefiting from the data, engagement, and customer stickiness UPI brings.
