When 8th November 2016, When our prime minister announced that 500 and 1000 rupees notes should be banned, 86% of currency notes in India were just merely a pieces of paper. Demonetization took an unprecedented turn of trying to make India move towards a Cashless Economy.

It has major benefits like Electronic payments will help business people to boost their customer base even in different geographical locations and the real estate prices comes down as most of the real estate business happens through black money. By this way of cashless economy buying the votes by giving the cash has also reduced and it reduces the robbery and pick pocketing. Moreover It is transparent and corrupt free as IT officials can track records easily.

I would like to conclude that for a country like India it is required a transition towards a cashless economy and Government has to provide the financial literacy and Internet facilities to all its people.

CASHLESS in other words means digitalisation. Digitalization is one of the primary motives of the government today.

Everything on earth has merits and demerits. In one hand, digitalization ensures security, ease of transactions, reduction in threats, volatility and stress-free businesses. There are umpty number of platforms that provide digitalized transactions and can help in easy movement of money without much prerequisites. With these in hand, there should not be any requirement of maintaining a bank passbook, visiting your broker often to check the balance etc.

On the other hand, despite the large database of the internet, only about 530 million of the Indian population had access to the internet in 2018-19. And most of the people who live in villages are not aware of how the digitalized world works.

Cashless economy has most of it's effect on the younger generation as they are more prone to such technological revolutions.

A cashless economy becomes a great step towards digitalization when people are aware of basic knowledge and requirements.

Cashless means a credit card, debit cards which mean a holder can use this cards if they mobile within a second transaction can be done by using apps like phonepay, Google pay, patym made transactions so simple within seconds work can completed. Carrying a huge amount of money with us a big headache because of theifs and we feel burden and we also become panic so by this cashless we feel better no tensions. Cashless made human being things so easy, we can do our shopping easily, from one place to another place we can send money by using applications and we can order any things, we cannot stand Infront ATMs or bank for long hours this cashless made easy for this kind problems. Cashless are spiking day by day. All this are things are useful to people who know about mobiles operation it means educated people will know a lot. Where as coming to the demerits, people from rural areas they have to stand in front banks to get money from banks, governments as to take so measures to get awareness in people, and hacking is also a problem for this it need good internet connection without that we cannot use it.

We have lots of merits which we can't deny, just because of a cashless economy we are able to do any kind of transaction to anywhere on fingertips. People even wouldn't think that instead of making a long line of the queue in the bank for long hours they will do this kind of thing from where they are and in a very easy way which helps to save our energy as well as time which is very important these days.

So what should we have to do these kinds of transaction firstly everyone should their own ATM card, or debit card so that we can easily transfer money through google pay, phone pe, paytm aap directly to any other account if we have good internet connection as we are the user we all know how much it is useful if we have just phone in my pocket it means we have everything like we can buy any product pay to anyone whosever we need to pay. We can also do card payment directly through debit or credit cards.

So it is a good initiative taken by the government, if we have all the availability then it is one of the ways to make India digital as well as cashless. In fact, in this ways we have all the records of every transaction so there may be no chance of black money we if using this mode of transaction.

And it would only happen if we have all the facilities and awareness but due to lack of proper awareness people are not using this facility in rural areas and they don't know how to use it first it would happen if everyone has a smartphone and proper internet connection government need to focus on this matter at ground level too because those who are not educated they face difficulties even fraud people easily make them fool too so government Should aware and tell them about every aspect as it easily transferable anyone embezzle them from within a sec without of their knowing.

There are lots of fraud people sitting everywhere to make them fool through fake phone call and they take all the details and but nowadays they just send one OTP and take that otp via call and money easily credited to that fraud's account, and we can't do anything.

So it is totally up to ourselves how to keep alert and spread awareness about each pros and cons of cashless economy before using it.

In my opinion, the Cashless Economy is a main economic future of any developing country.

As soon as possible we achieve it we become developed. Many hurdles come in our ways to adopt a cashless economy but good effort makes it possible.

In future cashless economy will become time demand.

Demerit -.

Low technology infrastructures and illiteracy rates discourage us for a cashless economy.

Less Knowledge about the financial aspect is low in society one major demerit of cashless economy.
