Death of paytm

Just went through RBI's note and developments as per major news houses, so Paytm would no longer be an app which used to be in almost every indian's phone march onwards. such a downfall of a firm who enjoyed their best time post covid.

Bhyi anyone knows how can i withdraw/utilise my food wallet from Paytm. Got 1.5k bucks there, don't wanna give a penny to Vijay.. any ideas?

On a serious note, i'm gonna miss paytm. it was an great app, atleast their wallet was the best ever, better than upi since the txn can't be unsuccessful. also they brought one of a kind revolution in e payments. RIP Paytm🫡

Pura pade lete. RBI has said withdrawal of existing customer funds is not to be stopped. Only onboarding new customers or adding funds is stopped that too from 29feb

Do you really believe that when a 40k crore company receives an RBI notice they'll simple fold their hands and close their business where they spent 14years building one of India's largest systems;

Or would they just swallow their pride, cut back on their tactics and work as RBI wants them to.

Companies aren't built overnight, and they don't die overnight either.

People just love fear mongering and howling that everything will fail.

More power to the Paytm leadership and VSS. They're the inspiration of the Indian startup ecosystem, and one of the biggest success.

This is eerily reminiscent of Razorpay debacle. Something similar has even happened to AmEx at some point in India. ...
