The introduction of the Digital Rupee by India's Reserve Bank represents a significant stride towards financial innovation amidst global trends favoring digital transactions and cryptocurrency emergence. This paper delineates the implications of this move for India's economy, focusing on enhanced financial inclusion, efficiency, and security. The Digital Rupee, operating on a blockchain-based platform, offers traceability and transparency while remaining centralized, providing regulatory oversight to the RBI. Its adoption addresses financial exclusion by offering a digital payment solution accessible to all segments, streamlining processes, and mitigating security risks associated with traditional cash transactions. The Digital Rupee also grants the RBI greater flexibility in implementing monetary policy. However, challenges including technological infrastructure, privacy concerns, and cybersecurity risks necessitate proactive measures. Leveraging a literature review approach, this study synthesizes insights from academic literature, government publications, and reputable news sources to comprehensively understand the Digital Rupee's implications and potential benefits for India's financial landscape.
