Market insights:

The payment security market in India was valued at INR 130.50 Bn in 2020. It is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of ~17.79% between 2021 and 2025, to reach a value of INR 289.90 Bn by 2025. The steady growth in the market can be attributed to the rising adoption of cashless payment methods and the increasing fraudulent activities associated with online transactions. It also includes the growing incidence of cyber thefts and data breaches. The increase in the governments participation in undertaking initiatives to promote cashless and digital economy has also encouraged growth in the market. Some of the policies implemented by the government include the launch of the Payments Infrastructure Development Fund and the introduction of instant payment facilities, such as UPI and BHIM. However, the lack of investments from IT companies on security solutions and the high cost of the adoption of payment security solutions hinder the growth of the payment security market.
