Where this market publishes its structure

• RBI payment aggregators page (rbi.org.in bs_viewcontent.aspx?Id=4392) not machine-readable: the id resolves to an unrelated RBI recruitment result (2026-10-22); the PA list is read from id=12043's Payment Aggregators section instead
• RBI NBFC / ARC registered lists (rbi.org.in BS_NBFCList.aspx -> rbidocs.rbi.org.in XLSX / PDF) not machine-readable: the page carries only links; every rbidocs.rbi.org.in document answers with an F5 TSPD JavaScript bot challenge (2026-10-22); not passed
• Sahamati AA ecosystem (sahamati.org.in/aa-ecosystem) not machine-readable: 301 to the AA governance calendar (no participant list); the AA / FIP / FIU lists are already read by india-stack -> edges reused, not re-read

Own = declares at least one integration itself; covered = visible only because an aggregator, standards body, regulator or partner contract names it; distribution-only = listed only on cloud marketplaces it sells through, a channel reported beside, never counted as its own declared integrations; undeclared = nothing we can read, so no number; declares_compatibility = providers with a `compatible` shape vote, report only (kin, 2026-10-13): never counted as own, never in depth or position.

Taxonomy how this market maps onto apis.io

Derived 2026-10-23 from the 96 providers in this market we could resolve in the catalog. The percentage is the share of those providers carrying each one; it describes the market, not the tag or industry. Tag groups have no page of their own yet, so they are listed unlinked.

share of resolved cohort carrying it; tags >=0.20 & >=3 members (max 12, junk dropped), tag_groups >=0.20 (cooccurrence, non-cross-cutting; max 8), industries >=0.20 (max 6), areas >=0.10 (max 6; areas are keyword-matched and sparse), capabilities L1 >=0.20 (max 8); derive-market-taxonomy.py
