The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) ordered a halt to many banking activities of digital payments provider Paytm while the regulator investigates “persistent noncompliances and continued material supervisory concerns.”
Paytm Payments Bank and its parent company, One97 Communications, made several disclosures to the National Stock Exchange of India indicating One97 would continue operating despite the RBI’s “embargo” on Paytm. The company also tamped down speculation the RBI’s enforcement directorate was conducting investigations into money laundering or foreign exchange rules violations at Paytm.
In addition to ceasing the acceptance of new customers, the RBI ordered Paytm to stop taking deposits and processing credit transactions or fund transfers after Feb. 29, it said in a Jan. 31 press release.
