Is there any risk in giving UPI ID?

Sharing your UPI ID is generally safe for receiving money because the ID itself cannot be used to withdraw funds without your UPI PIN. The risk lies in fraudulent activities, such as scammers sending fake "Collect Requests" or phishing attempts. Always keep your UPI PIN secret and never enter it to receive money. For instance, if you use a platform like Paytm, be vigilant against suspicious requests.
