You are comparing EU's GDPR to RBI's auto-subscription mandate rule? I am pretty sure a lot more people get scammed out of their money through UPI and Aadhar but yes, cancel auto-subscription payments first.

We are a third-world country. A country that has done nothing but made the job of every company even planning to set foot here extremely difficult. Check Musk's reply on Twitter when someone asked him why isn't Tesla coming here. The only reason companies are doing business here is because of our population. Otherwise, nobody would bother entering our market anymore. India has nothing to offer to anyone. Nor to a common man and nor to any company willing to do business.
 
If Google and whatsapp can launch their own upi platform, Uber and play store can accept payments via UPI, they can surely implement the RBI mandate. For others, if VISA and MC agrees to pass on data on recurring transactions to banks, this can be done.

I booked the GRE and it is an international merchant accepting payment in USD. Still it went through only after an OTP. I guess they also have tweaked their website to abide by RBI.
