- Indian Prime Minister, during the 52nd PRAGATI (Pro-Active Governance and Timely Implementation) meeting, directed all States to implement the e-Zero FIR system for cyber financial fraud cases.
- e-Zero FIR is a digital system that converts verified cyber financial fraud complaints into Zero First Information Reports (Zero FIRs), allowing cases to be registered at any police station before transfer to the concerned police station.
- The system covers cyber financial fraud complaints above ₹10 lakh reported through the National Cybercrime Reporting Portal (NCRP) or the 1930 cybercrime helpline.
- It is integrated with the Indian Cybercrime Coordination Centre (I4C) under the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) to enable faster registration and investigation of cybercrime cases.
- The initiative aims to ensure quick action during the "golden hour" to improve the chances of recovering money lost in cyber fraud.
