These limits apply across all UPI apps, and transactions are blocked once the daily limit is reached until the next 24-hour cycle.

There is no specific yearly HDFC UPI limit for HDFC customers.
HDFC Bank does not levy any charges on UPI transactions for its customers. However, under the new UPI guidelines, a 1.1% interchange fee applies to merchants for UPI transactions above Rs. 2,000 made through Prepaid Payment Instruments (PPI).
The standard HDFC UPI limit of ₹1 lakh per day and the ₹5,000 limit for new users cannot be increased. However, eligible categories such as education fees, hospital payments, taxes, and IPO applications allow transactions of up to ₹5 lakh.
