India’s DPI journey began well over a decade ago with Aadhaar in 2009 and the same has been transformative. Ihe impact these DPIs have created has been massive. To assess the progress of DPIs, which includes user adoption and growth, direct impact on citizens and economy,

indirect non-tangible benefits like convenience, time savings etc., it is important to understand how they have matured over time and categorise them on a maturity scale to assess the impact of these DPIs.

 A “Maturity Framework” has been developed based on various parameters on the basis of which each DPI is categorised and its impact assessed.

 

DPI 3

 

The parameters for the framework include –

  1. Recency i.e. the number of years since the DPIs have been launched and measures the period from when the citizens have availed benefits from the DPIs.
  2. Indirect benefits i.e. the intangible, indirect benefits availed by the citizens from the DPIs. These include financial inclusion, social inclusion, increase in productivity, cost savings, and ecological impact.
  3. Direct benefits – These include the dollar value and / or volume generated through the adoption of the DPI by the citizens.
  4. TAM (Total Addressable Market): The total population which can potentially benefit from the DPIs.
  5. TAM Penetration and Reach: Total users and the reach of the DPIs as percentage of the TAM.

All these parameters are considered, basis which a maturity score is assigned to each DPI, and which showcases where in the maturity framework a particular DPI is.

DPI 4

 

There is a natural clustering with most mature DPIs (comprising of Aadhaar, UPI, FASTag and GSTN) on the right side, followed by the budding DPIs, and other DPIs which are nascent. The budding DPIs comprise of a cluster with high TAM and low maturity score. This means they have had successful proofs of concept and are ripe for mass adoption.
