Previously in March 2022, RBI had prohibited PPBL from taking on new customers for KYC violations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lending platform had been briefly paused as partners like Shriram Finance, Aditya Birla Capital and HDFC Bank wanted clarity on RBI&#8217;s action against PPBL and its impact on their credit operations via Paytm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>RBI bars PPBL from new deposits and credit<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the deadline now being extended to mid-March, Paytm seems to have worked out interim arrangements and addressal of partner concerns, paving way for resumption of lending services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paytm also continues to be in talks with banks for payments partnerships so UPI services remain unaffected for users after March 15 deadline expires for PPBL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So while PPBL faces uncertainties amid RBI probe, Paytm&#8217;s broader lending and payments services now restart after brief technology integration and regulatory clarity driven suspension.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paytm is likely to resume its lending platform operations in the first week of March, enabling partner banks and NBFCs to restart offering digital loans to customers.
