However, a regulatory change could disrupt consumer payments at fuel stations. Dealer associations are petitioning the Ministry of Finance and Petroleum for an exemption from a new UPI transaction fee set to take effect next month. Operators warn that the levy could severely impact their thin, fixed per-litre margins, potentially forcing some dealers to halt UPI acceptance for transactions above ₹2,000 to protect their profitability.
