"In order to facilitate swift and seamless payments in real time for domestic businesses and institutions, it has been decided to make available the RTGS system round the clock on all days from December 2020," said RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das on Friday.
He noted that India will be among very few countries globally with '24x7x365' large value real-time payment system.
This will facilitate innovations in the large value payments ecosystem and promote ease of doing business, he said.
RTGS facility is mostly used for high-value transactions.
