Overview

  • NITI Aayog released its 'DPI@2047' strategy on Monday, laying out DPI 2.0 for 2025–35 and DPI 3.0 for 2035–47 to steer long-term growth.
  • The report calls for state-led, two-year cycles that start in 2026–27 with lighthouse pilots in six 'champion' states or UTs focused on MSMEs and agriculture.
  • It projects digital public infrastructure could lift its share of GDP to about 4% by 2030, up from roughly 1% today.
  • To run the push, the plan seeks a central coordination team at MeitY and NITI Aayog, an expert group spanning DPI and AI, a pool of support partners for states, and a neutral global DPI body in 2027.
  • Chief Economic Adviser V. Anantha Nageswaran said the push can blunt energy price shocks by raising productivity for small farmers and micro businesses, building on Aadhaar, Jan Dhan and UPI.
