Unified Payments Interface (UPI) services experienced a major nationwide disruption on Thursday due to internal technical issues at a few participating banks, according to a statement from the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI).

“We regret inconvenience on intermittent UPI connectivity issues as few of the banks were having some internal technical problems. Our systems have been working fine and we have worked with these banks to ensure quick resolution,” said NPCI .
