DIY: Making your RO Water Purifier compliant to Indian Laws

Around mid-2018 when my old water purifier conked off, I went for a RO Water Purifier (Livpure Pep Pro++) knowing that the water from RO tasted sweet to your tongue. However I hadn't done much research on water purification techniques and water quality of the supply that I received in my Mumbai home.

Background:

From around early 2018 the activities around water conservation and ground water recharge had increased in India. In addition to that the Indian Supreme Court introduced a ban on RO Water Purifier systems setting a baseline on the TDS parameters which should be considered before deciding to buy RO systems - https://www.financialexpress.com/india-news/ban-on-ro-systems-to-continue-in-delhi-supreme-court-declines-to-stay-ngt-order/1772112/ . The Supreme Court ruled that you  need an RO system ONLY if the TDS is greater than 500 mg/litre (500 PPM).

Creating your UPI QR Code for easy FASTag Recharge

Let's accept the fact that we live in a world with QR codes. QR (Quick Response) codes have made our lives very simple.

So I thought of making lives simple for the frequent travellers across Toll Plazas, who will now need to recharge their FASTag's frequently. 

My now many of us know that NPCI has made our lives easy by enabling FASTag recharges seamless by transferrring the recharge amount to the UPI ID/VPA as per your FASTag linked Bank. For example: netc.@

I thought of going 1 Step above to make thing more simple. How about creating a QR code for the UPI ID/VPA linked to your FASTag. I will continue with the example of Vehicle Number MH02AB1234, which is procured through HDFC Bank.
