ANSWER: SBI
- At present, SBI e-Pay is the PGA for NTRP.
- This is an important initiative taken by Controller General of Accounts, Department of Expenditure, and Ministry of Finance under the Digital India campaign.
- The online electronic payment in a completely secured IT environment will help common users/citizens from the hassle of visiting bank premises for issue of drafts, and later to Government offices to deposit the instrument for availing services.
- It also helps avoidable delays and remittance of these instruments into Government account as well as eliminates undesirable practices in the delayed deposit of these instruments into bank accounts.
- A depositor can make online payment to the Government using either a Credit Card, a Debit Card or through Net Banking with the Payment Gateway Aggregator (PGA).
