 A few years ago, the bill payment sector was a single fragmented sector with customers doing the bill payment by standing in long queues and biller counters were always chaos. Quick payment and ubiquity was the need of the hour once demonetization wave hit the country. There was only 14% of the physical cash circulating in the country and the bill payment sector was affected the most as people were highly dependant on cash for Water bill payment. 

This instigated an enormous need for creating a bill payment system that is ubiquitous, secure and a single platform connected to the banks, billers and agent institutions. hence RBI conceptualized a two-tier structure called BBPS. There are two units in BBPS, a BBPCU( Bharat Bill Payment Central Unit) and three smaller operating units called BBPOUs, the customer end engaging unit called BBPOU customer and BBPOU biller acquiring unit that is enlisting all the billers from categories. For eg, Idea is a biller acquired by BBPOU hence idea broadband postpaid bill payment is made easy, quick and efficient by BBPS.

The online bill payment has gained momentum in the past few years through government initiatives such as BBPS, UPI payments etc. The whole system participants consist of the customers, the billers and in between, the banks connected to the BBPCU, agent institutions that are related to RBI approved utility bill payment sectors like Electricity, water, DTH, telecom, Gas. uttarakhand power bill payment can now be done easily and securely through online and digital modes of payment.
