PhonePe Data Platform Joins PM GatiShakti for National Planning
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.
PhonePe signed an MoU with the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology to integrate PulsePro into PM GatiShakti.
PulsePro converts aggregated and anonymised transaction data into market signals across geographies and categories.
The platform is intended to support infrastructure planning, economic analysis, and urban and rural development.
PulsePro metrics will be integrated into the PM GatiShakti National Master Plan portal with BISAG-N collaboration.
MeitY Secretary S Krishnan said granular, hyperlocal data can improve planning and decision-making.
