1. What is IndiaStack?
IndiaStack is a paperless and cashless service delivery system being conceived by a digital think tank iSpirit. It can enable the govern ment, the citizens and entrepreneurs to inter act with each other through an open digital platform. It is the larg est application programming interface that is being developed in order to enable 1.2 billion Indians to get access to goods and services digitally.
2. When was it started?
It was conceived by the government of India in 2012 when they realised, in order to help services reach the last mile of the Indian population, it needed private technology solutions to be built on the Aadhaar database. The project is being pedalled forward by Nandan Nilekani the ex-chief of Unique Identification Database Authority of India, who describes it as the "Whatsapp moment for Indian banking".
3. Why is it essential?
The government has been striving for a less cash economy to prevent pilferages and last mile connectivity of financial services.While the Aadhaar database allows users to complete all KYC requirements, there is still a gap in getting approvals because of the need for a signature on paper. IndiaStack will be able to bridge that gap through its digital lockers which will allow for digital signatures and seamless API (Application programming interface) integration for authentication through eKYC.
4. How will it be designed?
IndiaStack is conceived as a py ramidal structure based on the Aadhaar database as the base and unified payments interface (UPI) that is being developed by NPCI (National Payments Corporation of India) as the top. The two middle stacks comprise digital signatures and eKYC. Nilekani has explained that with the help of digital signatures customers will not need to actually sign a paper document, instead it can digitally sign it by using a smartphone. eKYC will also enable the identity of the customer to be determined digitally as well.
5. How will it be beneficial?
The biggest benefits could be completely digital payments through the UPI infrastructure for a less cash economy . Also, loan approval through eKYC and digital signatures could be done faster in a paperless fashion. Both these steps can bring people without access to digital payments to come within the digital fold
