What Happened

State Bank of India (SBI) has announced that its UPI services will be temporarily unavailable for about 45 minutes on September 4 due to scheduled maintenance. The bank said the outage is expected from 12:15 AM to 1:00 AM IST, though the activity may be completed earlier. During this period, customers can continue making small-value payments through UPI Lite.

Key Takeaways

Customers planning late-night digital payments should keep alternative payment options ready. SBI has advised users to use UPI Lite, which supports transactions of up to ₹1,000 per payment with a maximum balance of ₹5,000, for uninterrupted service during the maintenance window.
