e-NAM aims for the integration of APMCs throughout the nation via a shared online market platform to improve pan-India commerce in farm commodities, allowing for better price discovery through a transparent auction procedure based on product quality and quick online payment.

IndusInd Bank has been directly connected with the e-NAM platform to provide farmers and merchants with secure and convenient payments, clearing, and settlement services. The bank would provide a variety of transaction services to the buyer and seller of agricultural goods using digital channels like multi-net banking, debit card, NEFT, RTGS, IMPS, and UPI.
