PhonePe Data Platform Joins PM GatiShakti for National Planning
How PhonePe's Data Platform Will Enhance National Planning · rediff.com

PhonePe has made a deal with the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology.

It will add information from its PulsePro platform to the PM GatiShakti planning system.

PulsePro studies large groups of anonymised transactions, so individual customers are not identified.

The information can show what kinds of activity are happening in different places.

Planners may use these signals to understand markets and local needs.

The data could help with roads, infrastructure, and economic planning.

It may also support development in cities and villages.

S Krishnan said this kind of detailed information can help officials make better decisions.
