Digital signs to electronic files: Gr Noida will go online
Noida: Greater Noida Authority will switch to e-office, which is expected to speed up paperwork by allowing officials to approve files from any part of the state.
UP govt earlier directed all departments to go online to improve administrative efficiency and transparency.
According to officials, email IDs have already been created for all permanent staff members of the Authority, and the process of issuing digital signatures is currently underway. "The NIC is handling the technical implementation of this project. With e-Office, all files will be digitised and made available online. The officers and employees, regardless of their location, will be able to access and sign these files digitally.
Each approval will be time-bound, making it easier to ensure timely action on files," said NG Ravi Kumar, CEO of the Greater Noida Authority.
He added that the cost of implementing the system will be covered by the state government. The CEO directed officials to expedite the transition to e-Office, and KM Chaudhary, the system manager of the Authority, has been appointed as the nodal officer to oversee the implementation.
Chaudhary said that email IDs of most officers and employees have been generated, and the process of creating digital signatures is underway. He said that approximately 160 employees of the Authority are expected to work on the e-Office platform. "For those whose email IDs and digital signatures have not yet been created, the Authority will organise a camp on Monday at the Authority Auditorium from 3 pm onwards," he said.
The officers who need to complete their digital signature process have been instructed to bring their Aadhaar card, PAN card, and Authority-issued ID card to the camp. The e-Office project is a key component of Uttar Pradesh's broader push towards digital governance.

India stands out as global fintech bright spot as credit demand surges
New Delhi: India has emerged as one of the most dynamic fintech markets globally, driven by a potent combination of digital public infrastructure (UPI, Aadhaar, Account Aggregator), a mobile-first population, and regulatory clarity, a report showed on Monday. Fintech-led digital lending grew at 35 per cent CAGR in 2024, driven by rising credit demand, according to the report by QED Investors and Boston Consulting Group (BCG). Tools like UPI have enabled a wave of fintech innovation from digital lending to payments to wealth particularly benefitting underserved and unbanked populations. These enablers have accelerated innovation and financial inclusion at scale, making India a key focus for both global investors and domestic fintech players, said the report. India features among the top geographies poised for future fintech investment. Investors are encouraged to diversify capital into high-growth regions like India, with an emphasis on AI integration and disciplined scale, it added. India's affluent middle class, currently 31 per cent of the population, is projected to grow to 40 per cent (nearly 600 million) by 2031. This demographic shift is fuelling a surge in consumer demand for credit across retail, consumption, and SME sectors. "India stands at a unique inflection point in the global fintech landscape. With a strong foundation in digital infrastructure like UPI, Aadhar, Account Aggregator, and tech-savvy mobile-first population, the country has already shown how innovation can drive financial inclusion at scale,' said Sandeep Patil, Partner and Head of Asia at QED Investors. To win the next chapter, fintechs must pair innovation with disciplined execution. 'That means building trust, demonstrating profitability, and navigating an evolving regulatory landscape with maturity. The Indian market is large, dynamic and underpenetrated — well-positioned to be one of the defining arenas for global fintech over the next decade,' Patil mentioned. Globally, in 2024, fintech revenues grew by 21 per cent — up from 13 per cent in 2023 — marking a threefold acceleration over the financial services industry at large. 'A class of scaled fintechs is coming of age. Investors are demanding greater maturity, and regulators want more accountability,' said Deepak Goyal, a managing director and senior partner at BCG. 'Meanwhile, emerging disruptors are harnessing next-generation technologies like agentic AI and pioneering new business models, pushing established players to continuously innovate,' he added.

‘Thalliki Vandanam' Scheme: How To Get Rs 15,000 Aid – Step-by-Step Guide For Mothers
Last Updated: Thalliki Vandanam Scheme: Andhra government will deposit Rs 15,000 directly into the accounts of students' mothers. Certain key conditions must be fulfilled to receive this benefit The Andhra Pradesh government has announced a key update on the 'Thalliki Vandanam' scheme. As part of the newly formed coalition government's 'Super Six' promises made during the elections, the scheme is set to be implemented this June. With schools reopening on June 12 after the summer break, the government is taking steps to ensure financial assistance reaches the mothers of school-going children on time. Under the 'Thalliki Vandanam' scheme, the state government will deposit Rs 15,000 directly into the bank accounts of students' mothers. The amount is intended as a token of respect for the efforts and dedication of mothers towards their children's education. However, to receive this benefit, certain important conditions must be fulfilled. To be eligible for the payment, the mother's bank account must be linked to both: Her Aadhaar number, and The NPCI (National Payments Corporation of India) system. Officials have clearly stated that if either of these linkages is missing, the payment will not be processed. According to recent government orders, the Aadhaar and NPCI linking process must be completed by June 5. To facilitate this, postal department staff, village/ward secretariats, and bank officials will assist beneficiaries in completing the necessary procedures. Authorities have urged all eligible mothers to check whether their bank accounts are linked with Aadhaar and NPCI. If not, the linking must be completed urgently through the nearest Mee Seva centre, post office, or bank branch. NPCI linking is essential for enabling direct benefit transfers (DBT) under government schemes. Without it, even if the money is released, it won't be credited to the beneficiary's account. To avoid inconvenience, the government has directed all departments to provide special support. Linking centres are also being set up in rural areas to make the process easier for beneficiaries. The government emphasises that this is not just a financial aid programme, but a gesture to recognise and honour the pivotal role played by mothers. It also marks the beginning of fulfilling the 'Super Six' promises, aimed at increasing public trust and welfare. First Published: June 02, 2025, 10:55 IST
