Kotak Launches Seamless GST Payment With Multiple Options – UPI, Credit Card , Debit Card And Net Banking

* This initiative endorses Kotak’s commitment to support Government of India’s vision to promote digital payments and simplify financial transactions

In line with Government of India’s vision to promote digital payments and simplify financial transactions, Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited (“KMBL”/“Kotak”) today announced the launch of seamless GST payments through multiple options - UPI, Credit Card, and Debit Card, in addition to the existing Net Banking option. Kotak is India’s first bank that enables tax payers to seamlessly meet their GST obligations by choosing their preferred digital payment mode in the GST portal’s 'E-payment'.

Kotak Mahindra Bank continues to be an ardent supporter of India’s Digital Public Infrastructure and has been participating in the growth of the digital marketplace through multiple initiatives. With the new seamless and multiple payment options, customers, even those from other banks (previously unauthorised for certain payment options), will be able to efficiently and reliably complete their GST payments. Notably, Kotak integrated with the Centre's GST portal last year, providing a user-friendly platform for tax fulfilment through its Net Banking service.

Raghavendra Singh, President, Public Affairs & Government Business, Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited, said, "We commend the Government of India's efforts in leading a digital payment revolution that is being recognised and adopted by countries across the world. As the first Bank in India to launch multiple GST payment options, we are delighted to pave the way for the future of digital payments through a frictionless customer experience for not only Kotak customers but for all tax payers”.
