The statement revealed that transaction numbers jumped from 50 crore by mid-2024 to 100 crore by January 2025, before doubling again to reach the landmark 200 crore.

Bhuvnesh Kumar, CEO of UIDAI, highlighted the collaborative efforts with governments, banks, and service providers to enhance the success of Aadhaar Face Authentication. This achievement signifies the scalability of the system and exemplifies India's digital readiness.
