PhonePe signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) on August 21, 2026, to integrate its PulsePro platform into the PM GatiShakti framework. PulsePro uses aggregated and anonymised transaction data to generate market signals and provide hyperlocal insights across different geographies and categories. These metrics will be integrated into the PM GatiShakti National Master Plan portal, which supports integrated infrastructure planning and coordinated project implementation. The partnership aims to strengthen data-driven infrastructure planning by providing useful insights that can help policymakers better understand economic activity and regional trends.
