By October 1, 2025, all SEBI-registered investor-facing intermediaries will be provided with standardized, validated, and exclusive UPI IDs, which they can share with investors who seek to transfer money to them via this channel. As an additional ‘scam filter’, this unique UPI ID will be backed by a green triangle and a reassuring thumbs-up to let investors know that it’s a genuine recipient.
This may seem like a small User Interface tweak. But for investors, it could be a game-changer. It means you’ll never have to wonder if you’re sending your money to the right party. The new handles (e.g., abc.brk@validhdfc) are exclusive, structured, and directly mapped to verified intermediaries. No more ambiguity; no more middlemen; just direct, secure transactions.
At NSDL, we welcome this move wholeheartedly. Being one of India’s core Market Infrastructure Institutions (MIIs), we believe that while investing, security should be a foundation for any transaction. This initiative is a huge stride toward making digital investing easy and safer, by design .
For investors , this means peace of mind with every transaction. With verified UPI handles that feature an official green triangle “thumbs-up” icon as a mark of authenticity, investors can rest assured that they are on a clear and trustworthy payment trail.
For intermediaries , this is a compliance step and an opportunity to gain the deeper trust of clients. Obtaining a “” UPI ID and actively educating users about its importance can go a long way in reinforcing transparency and credibility, while ensuring simplicity of transactions.
And for scamsters , these simple official green triangle “thumbs-up” icon serves as a strong deterrent against phishing attempts and payment fraud.
