Nandan Nilekani is now looking to replicate the success of UPI. He, along with Pramod Varma and Sujith Nair, founded Beckn in late 2019 — a UPI-like open specification for mobility and commerce. It works as an open but integrated marketplace that provides a level playing field to new players and incumbents who can use Beckn to reach more customers. Beckn brand is owned by Open Shared Mobility Foundation.
