Mumbai, NFAPost: The Reserve Bank of India has restricted Paytm Payments Bank Ltd from taking fresh deposits and credit transactions across its services, due to non-compliance of regulations and supervisory concerns.
An audit report revealed “persistent non-compliances and continued material supervisory concerns in the bank, warranting further supervisory action,” the central bank said in a release.
Paytm Payments Bank will not be allowed to take further deposits in any customer accounts after Feb. 29, the RBI said.
