TPAP resolves a VPA address to find the name of the entity to which the VPA belongs and its source before collecting a payment. Below are the expected responses:
* Payment source information such as `name`, `ifsc` and `upi_iin` are sent in response only when NPCI responds to switch as the VPA is verified.
* `isMerchantVerified`, `mcc` and `merchantType` are sent in response only when the VPA of a merchant is verified.
Use this endpoint to Resolve a VPA.
