On January 31, 2024, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) had imposed major business restrictions on Paytm Payments Bank, barring it from accepting fresh deposits and doing credit transactions after February 29 because of “persistent non-compliance and continued material supervisory concerns in the bank”.
